11th September 2015 RNLI LifeboatsBaltimore Lifeboat leaving Baltimore harbourBaltimore Lifeboat 'Alan Massey' leaving Baltimore harbour on a service today. The alb was launched to act as back-up for Baltimore ilb, which was tasked to go the aid of a boat that went onto rocks on the island at Tragumna. The male occupant of the 18ft punt managed to scramble ashore onto the island. When the ilb crewed of Youen Jacob, Kieran Collins and Jason Pavrey arrived on scene they dropped an anchor, so that they could safely veer the lifeboat through a heavy swell and wave washed shoreline to rescue the boats occupant. The casualty was then passed over to Baltimore alb for his comfort and safety on the journey back to his departure point. The lifeboats were aided by Toe Head CG who assisted in recovery of the boat, which was then towed by Baltimore ilb to its mooring in Trá na mBhó. The alb was crewed by Aidan Bushe coxswain, Cathal Cottrell mechanic, Sean McCarthy, Don O' Donovan and Ronnie Carthy.
