A LIFEBOAT was launched following reports that a dinghy may have capsized.
On Thursday, July 28, at 6.12pm a lifeboat from Lyme Regis was launched following reports that a dinghy may have capsized half a mile off of Abbotsbury.
However, it was later established by the crew that an inflatable kayak had been washed ashore and that no people were involved.
This was the 26th emergency call to the Lyme Regis crew so far this year and the third during the town’s Lifeboat Week.
