Yesterday the JLA had a planned exercise with Elizabeth Castle Ferry and Jersey Coastguard.
This formed part of our simulation training and the exercise scenario was as follows:
“ A call out to the ferry after the vessel had experienced a fouled propeller, subsequently the skipper had slipped and injured themselves”
JLA’s “Albert Pinel” launched into action, taking on an alongside tow until the casualty was stabilised and transferred to Bertie before heading swiftly back to St Helier.
With thanks to Jersey Heritage, Castle Ferries and Jersey Coastguard.
Albert Pinel is now back on her berth and ready for tasking.
Your lives, your crew, your boat.
Your lives, Your Crew, Your Boat.
