Four saved by Lymington lifeboat after boat runs aground

Lymington lifeboat.
FOUR people were rescued by Lymington lifeboat after their 7.5m rigid inflatable boat ran aground on marshes.
The casualties were not equipped with a VHF radio and were located after using their mobile phones as torches, which enabled the lifeboat crew to pinpoint their location.
The rescue was carried out in the early hours.
A lifeboat spokesperson said: "The lifeboat proceeded to the western section of the marshes at the entrance to the Lymington River, as directed by the HM Coastguard.
"Unfortunately the casualties did not have a VHF radio on them so it was difficult to establish their exact location.
