Shout 32 - 08/06/26 - ILB Launch πŸ“Ÿ

Yesterday, The Mumbles RNLI's inshore lifeboat launched to assist a 30ft vessel in Swansea Bay after it became disabled with a fouled propeller.

The volunteer crew made their way to the casualty vessel and assessed the situation. With concerns for the welfare of those on board and the vessel drifting within a shipping lane, it was decided that the best course of action was to undertake a short tow to Swansea Marina.

Once safely alongside, the crew ensured the vessel and its occupants were secure before returning to station, where the lifeboat was refuelled and made ready for service.

The 40th Mumbles RNLI Raft Race sets sail on Sunday 19th July at 12pm. We look forward to welcoming competitors, supporters and spectators for another fantastic day on the water in support of the RNLI.

πŸ“Ÿ Shouts 25 - 31πŸ“Ÿ

It has been another busy period for The Mumbles RNLI volunteers, with several launches over a short period.

The first launch saw both lifeboats assist with a search from Mumbles Head to Worm's Head. During the search, the ILB was retasked to reports of people struggling in the water at Pebbles Beach.

Upon returning from the incident, our all-weather lifeboat was retasked to a potenial Mayday in Swansea Bay, searching all the way to Port Talbot Deep Water Harbour.

The day was not over for our volunteer crew, with the ILB later launched to reports of people stranded on an island, the first shout for Adam Evans' as Helm!

Further launches followed, including a search for a missing fisherman during the early hours of Saturday morning and, on Sunday, assisting South Wales Police with an operation in Swansea Bay.

With the warm weather continuing, we urge anyone visiting the coast to check the weather and tides before setting out, and remember that sea temperatures can remain dangerously cold even on hot days. And remember, if you get into difficulty in the water, Float to Live!
