From Shingle Street Coastguard<br />
Hi once again, We have two incidents<br />
to report on this time.<br />
On 15 th November at 1250 called to<br />
Bawdsey Ferry where a kitesurfer got<br />
into difficulties off the Deben Bar. He<br />
was detached from his kite and was<br />
finally rescued by Harwich Lifeboat,<br />
unharmed albeit a little cold. He was<br />
transferred to the Harwich Inshore<br />
Lifeboat and returned to Felixstowe<br />
Ferry. His kite was retrieved by us<br />
and also returned to him at Felixstowe<br />
Ferry.<br />
That’s it for now, until next time, safe<br />
passage.<br />

On 29 th November at 1240 requested<br />
by Suffolk Police to attend a sheep<br />
stuck in the mud off Havergate Island.<br />
We managed to free the sheep and with<br />
the help of an angler’s boat we took<br />
the sheep to Orford Quay where it was<br />
reunited with its owner.<br />
The team invites you to an open day<br />
on <strong>January</strong> 10 th 10am−3pm at the<br />
station, Coastguard Cottages, Shingle<br />
Street. Look forward to seeing you<br />
there.<br />
