At 12:30 UK time today the Torbay Lifeboat, the RNLB Alec and Christina Dykes slipped her moorings behind the landward end of the north eastern breakwater and put to sea.
Seen here in deceptively sheltered water nearing the end of the breakwater
The coxswain applies a little more power as he begins to round the breakwater. Some of the Heritage boats that were rallying and racing can be seen in the background
Yet more power, with in the background the sail training ship Stavros S Niarchos at anchor
Beginning now to feel the power of the short swell and easterly headwind
Heading away east south east towards Berry Head in a welter of spray
No cropping of any of the shots.
All with a Panasonic GH2 and Olympus 50-200 f/2.8-3.5 4/3 fitting lens
