Lifeboats occupy a particular place in people’s hearts as unpaid volunteers regularly take to their boats often in extremely adverse conditions to rescue others from the sea. The stories that go with lifeboats and their crews are those of courage, sacrifice, community and our coastline. No matter if one is on holiday by the coast, or living inland, we are always aware of the work these brave crews do, and also aware of the tremendous affection the RNLI has throughout the whole of the British Isles. An island race appreciates those who risk their lives continually to help those endangered at sea. May-Day! May-Day! showcases the work, over many years, that the RNLI crews have undertaken, using the technology and training of their time to go out into dangerous waters to rescue people. It contains a great deal of useful/technical information to give the reader all the background information to the science of saving lives at sea. The RNLI is close to the hearts of the British public, who want to know more about their work today, but also historically how they have evolved. With archive material, first-person interviews of station commanders, rescuers, etc. plus scientific illustrations and maps, this book will be the first to bring together the history and technology, people and crews, triumphs and disasters of the RNLI together in one book.

The British Channel, 22-miles of water dividing the UK from Europe, is the busiest shipping lane in the world: 500 large ships every 24 hours, many more small craft and yachts. Over one billion, one hundred and twenty million tonnes of shipping pass through these waters every year - and one enforcement team keeps it all in check...Sea Patrol. Sometimes the simplest of accidents can lead to the most dangerous of rescues. A simple fall from a high rock can leave a fisherman or rock climber perilously at risk from violent seas, and helicopter rescue teams must risk their lives battling the elements to bring the injured to safety. Saving lives, however, is just the beginning of the story. Spotter planes identifying errant craft, inspecting fishing trawlers profiting from deception, searching out hidden contraband on rebellious vessels, unexploded bombs and live mines caught up in fishing nets, a tanker in distress in stormy seas… These are the challenges faced at sea, and now you can be there for the first time as cameras take you into the eye of the storm and you manoeuvre alongside SEA PATROL UK.
