I’m two minds about this.

On the one hand, they were all wearing lifejackets. And Army Bay’s a safe enough spot in a Northerly - if you wind up in the drink, you’ll float ashore eventually. As long as there were some sober people in seaworthy boats taking part - which there appear to have been - I don’t see a problem.

On the other hand, I’m all in favour of Coastguard turning up whenever someone calls them out. Despite having been “rescued” unnecessarily in the past myself, and charged for it, I’d rather have them come when I don’t need it than not come when I do. And it must really piss them off to be called out unnecessarily, particularly to people playing idiot games. Almost all Coastguard staff are volunteers, they have lives they’re being called away from.

The organisers should have notified Coastguard what they were up to (particularly if it’s an annual event) and what safety precautions they’d taken. But Coastguard could perhaps lighten up a bit.

Best use of a Scooby I’ve seen in a while though....
