Hide AdA spokesperson for the RNLI added: “The ILB crew was released and returned to station. Due to the conditions on the beach, recovery onto the trailer was abandoned and the ILB was taken to the safe haven of Sovereign Harbour.


“The D-Class remains fully operational, and will return to station at the next available opportunity.”
