Charity welcomes 50 per cent fall since 2013
Teaching people to respect the water has reduced accidents around the coast, the RNLI says.
The charity published its annual rescue figures this week, revealing 35 people were plucked from the Island's seas by lifeboats in 2015.
That's more 50 per cent less than two years ago.
The RNLI welcomes the statistics, saying an emphasis on public education in recent years has paid off.
Press Officer Mike Howland says it's a priority for the charity:
'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
Fly tipping warning from police after instances outside Crossroads
Manx Radio to 'formally investigate' complaint from veteran broadcaster
Station confirms it received an 'official letter of complaint' this week
Temporary ambulance station established at Castletown Coastguard Station
Ambulance cover in the south to be maintained following station fire
Owners advised to keep pets out of river
A number of fish have been found dead in the river near Poulsom Park
