Dave was checked on after concerns he'd got into difficulty around Gansey
An experienced paddleboarder who went out in challenging conditions around Gansey last week is thanking everyone who made sure he was ok.
Dave told Mannin Line a number of people called the RNLI and Coastguard because it seemed he was in trouble.
While Dave says he was fine, he appreciated the concern and the way it was dealt with by the lifeboat crew.
He says the fact three paddleboarders were rescued in Laxey at the weekend highlights the need for everyone to recognise how dangerous it can be:
Young people's bereavement drop in service coming to an end
Pub's inclusive toilet signs vandalised
£100K cash injection for energy efficiency scheme
Regulator investigates potential Manx Radio licence compliance issue
DoI has change of heart over seaweed clearance in Laxey Harbour
