Taken today at Teignmouth,Devon.UK. The Fishing Vessel The Girl Rona was swamped by a huge wave as she was entering the harbour and is now partially sunk.None of the five crew were injured thank goodness.The Teignmouth Lifeboat that went to their rescue was damaged slightly. They are going to drain the fuel from her later on today . News Devon Camera used Pentax K200D Thank you for viewing. Any sales money will be donated to the RNLI.
Hi Catherine, You’r an ealybird alright. Nice one. David
Hi David!!! we didnt think you would be up that early, thats why we didn’t ring you. Have you just got up? You might want to take a run over there. it’s just the other side of the pier.x hugs
Goodness! How frightening for all involved! A great capture for you though and good luck with the fund-raising!
Thank you so very much dear Carol,I’m just so pleased nobody was hurt. Richard and I always support the Lifeboats, they have a great fundraising event that we attend each year.x
Such a distressing sight: thank goodness everybody was rescued and uninjured and that volunteers put their own lives on the line to rescue seamen in situations such as this !
Thank you Mattie for your kind comment. It’s just so good nobody was injured.
