Lucky escape for Derbyhaven kite surfer

Port St Mary lifeboat called to aid

There's been a lucky escape for a kite surfer in Derbyhaven, after the lifeboat was called out to help.

A member of the public spotted the person struggling after they were separated from their board in force six conditions.

It happened at around 10:20am this morning, when Port St Mary's D-Class lifeboat went to help the surfer.

However the person managed to make it back to shore without assistance, so the RNLI stood down.
