First call of 2023 for Seahouses lifeboat crew
Seahouses RNLI was called to a vehicle and occupants reported stranded on Holy island Causeway.
On arrival of the Coastguard Team, they were able to confirm the people were safe and dry on the Causeway bridge, and their car would be able to be moved as the tide receded. As they were in no danger, the inshore lifeboat was stood down and returned to station.
