Strolling with SK, Episode 6. This episode is to celebrate 200 years of the RNLI ( Royal National Lifeboat Institute ). We take a Stroll through the lower part of East Cowes, passing different parts of the towns history. I'm looking at starting a new playlist, going through our wonderful towns history & it has some fantastic history.

Hi old friend. Men of the sea that deserve more attention than they are given. I once served as SAR-Search and Rescue for a private Finnish company, and that type of work is far from a stroll in the park. All of our front line personnel need far more money and resources than they are currently given. I won't go too deeply into the subject, as it would involve politics, but it has become a bone of contention that must be addressed, soon. I have to go away for a while, some serious family problems have arisen in my homeland. My cousin Cesare is over here at the moment to give me the full details, so it's my kitbag at the ready. Stay with Kev and good luck. Old proverb. The person who returns from a journey is not the same who left. Cheers.

Hi old friend. I absolutely agree with you. The lifeguards need more support. Whenever I see them leaving the harbour. I always wish them luck & gods speed. I do hope your family situation isn't too bad & it's sorted soon. My thoughts are with you. Stay safe Sal.

I know, can't go wrong with a bit of cake. I missed a lot of classic cars, I was gutted. I thought I filmed them. I hope you are ok, after your fall. I'm hoping to get to a church this week. Much love back. ❤️

Some nice sunsets there Kev! The equivalent here of the RNLI would be the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard (AVCG) although it's a far more recent organisation (1961). I see them sometimes patrolling the gulf in their distinctive yellow boats with their gull-and-anchor logo. ⚓

You can't beat a sunset here, compared to other places on the Island. RNLI and AVCG are unbelievable people. Respect to them all. 🛟⚓

Agreed! 😃We have ferries similar to that crossing the River Murray except they are a lot smaller than the floating bridge and they use cables rather than chains. I've never heard of one breaking down although they're quite old. They're run by the state government so they fly the South Australian flag from their mast. I don't recall any of them having names but that policy might have changed. ⚓
