Lifeboats called to Belcroute after concerns of possible fire on boat

Tuesday 15 August 2023


Lifeboat crews had to be called out to Belcroute after reports of smoke coming from the engine room of a boat that was taking on water.

The RNLI sent its all-weather and inshore lifeboats to the area.

Fortunately, those on board had already transferred to a nearby boat.

Firefighters checked the vessel and found that there was no fire.

A lifeboat crew then boarded the boat and used a salvage pump before it was towed back to St. Helier.
