Tom Barnett - Solent Coastguard
We are very lucky to have Tom Barnett coming to talk to us: you will appreciate that he is both a very busy chap and a keen Solent sailor.
He is coming to give us an overview on Search and Rescue and Incident Co-ordination for the Solent (and other) Coastguard area(s). If you want to know what actually happens if you find yourself having to press the distress button on your EPIRB or PLB then this talk is unmissable!
I think you will be impressed with how widely the UK coastguard operates with other rescue organisations world-wide on a 24/365 basis.
Please note this event will be live at the Port House and Sunday Lunch will be available afterwards.
We need to know numbers for both the talk and for lunch.
If you are unable to attend and there are sufficient numbers we will investigate making this available by zoom please pick this option when you register and we will get back to you.
Have fun and stay safe
Each skipper is responsible for the safety of their own boat and crew
