“We keep it dry”
Search and Rescue volunteer Morgan Beall secures an overturned 14-foot boat with a cracked hull, following the rescue of four people at Cotton Bay on Gambier Island. They were lucky to be near a log boom as the boat took on water. But they were also prepared, with a waterproof cellphone to call for help. RCMSAR Gibsons was dispatched and the boaters were soon being warmed up in Langdale. It was a close call, and a lesson as we head into boating season. See page 10. PHOTO SUBMITTED
