....to leaving a dory so it was drifting around on the beach at the Shrape, IOW at the end of the Cowes week fireworks.

I hear the state of it could have indicated an MOB causing coastie to instigate a search involving 2-3 lifeboats, 2 shore crews and the helecopter.

Dory owners kindly returned to the beach at 2am allowing the serach crews to get at least some sleep!!!!!

All on a day when coastie had to launch lifeboats on 22 ocasions - see

Was this by any chance, the berthing master's dory from Yarmouth Harbour, which went walkabout that evening?. Left with the keys in the ignition tut. tut.
