    They are equipped with some high tech kit these days - a long way from eight fit and fearless men in an open rowing boat.

    Its nice to see that you can be rescued. Better to prevent things like that from happening.

    I would have liked to see that. I am in awe of all that the Coastguard and the Lifeboat people do.

    The Coast Guards of any country are indeed amazing and skilled first responders...though often they also are the last ones looking for remains after accidents. So glad that there was a recent Coast Guard rescue of seamen inside a capsized ship, by using torches to cut through the side of the ship.
