Fleet Bay Inshore Rescue Service run an inshore lifeboat, set up to help those in need in the waters of Fleet & Wigtown Bays. Operating since 1974, the service now needs to invest in upgrades to ensure it meets the needs of HM Coastguard so that the service continues to be tasked to people in need.

Story

Our service has been operating since 1974, but since the end of 2023, HM Coastguard will no longer task Fleet Bay Inshore Rescue Service to respond to people in difficulty in our waters as we don't conform to The Rescue Boat Code.

It is imperative that we undertake the upgrades required to get the service up to the required standard as soon as possible and it is hoped that this campaign can help towards that goal.
