Is coast watch the answer

[BruceK]

I am sure they do a great job on the long relatively straight coastlines of the South coast of England. But they don’t cover the majority of the U.K. coastline - which due to the geography of inlets and islands is primarily in the North & West of the U.K. No NCI there, and as many says would be totally impractical to do so. Folks have to be more self sufficient, particularly as lifeboats are also very sparse by comparison, over an hour away often.

They are trying to grow but as a charity are also limited by funding. Want more? There is an easy answer if boaters have the appetite for it.

I would say that one organisation is fine, but two organisations are better as two sets of eyes are better than one.
