  This guy left Newcastle earlier in the week and has called for lifeboat assistance 3 times already, due to incompetence!

  People like that should be made to pay for the RNLI's help, these idiots not only put their own lives at risk but also those who have to rescue them.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  I couldn't agree more,Jan. The same goes for the idiots who get lost up hills and mountains.

  On other sites people have posted that he has been offered assistance charts etc, and even a crew member before he set off and at each stop but has refused each time!
  He's heading for Penzance, so far more treacherous waters than the east coast for him to get into plenty more trouble. Hopefully the coast guard will be able to intervene.

  From Hell, Hull and Halifax Good Lord deliver us!
  
  At least the treasurer hadn't flogged the lifeboat on EBay!

  The idiot is still at it; rescued and taken into Plymouth this morning, must be costing the institute a fortune!
