Burnham's RNLI volunteers called on again within days
Off to the rescue again: the lifeboat volunteers launching from their Burnham Marina base
FOLLOWING their late night shout on Sunday, the volunteers from Burnham-on-Crouch RNLI were called on again yesterday afternoon (Thursday, 8 July).
The local crews were asked to launch by the Coastguard at 2.45pm to go to the aid of a 27' motorboat with engine problems and two people onboard, close to the entrance to the River Roach.
The Atlantic Class lifeboat 'Tony & Robert Britt' was launched and later towed the boat into Essex Marina, that being the nearest suitable safe haven.
