:15:08. > :15:10.knocked about pretty badly, from here to there, the sea
:15:11. > :15:13.got me and pushed me up there and then it pushed me back.

:15:20. > :15:26.I was not born at the time and my mother was only four
:15:27. > :15:30.and a half but I learned the story from her.
:15:31. > :15:33.They launched the boat and because the men had alrdady been
:15:34. > :15:36.rescued from the other boat, it was so dreadful that thex went
:15:37. > :15:40.out unnecessarily in such awful conditions and the other thhng that
:15:41. > :15:43.stands out in my mind is that the families were w`tching
:15:44. > :15:47.from the cliff side and saw the whole thing unfold with the boat
:15:48. > :15:50.tipping over and that must be unimaginable to bear, reallx.
:15:51. > :15:53.And the aftermath, really, of finding the bodies
:15:54. > :16:00.I didn't know that my grand`d's body was found on the slipway
:16:01. > :16:04.where the boat had been launched at Southsands.
:16:05. > :16:08.I don't think my mother knew that. If she did, she didn't tell me that.

:16:11. > :16:12.That affected me greatly, going back to that beach

:16:16. > :16:18.If I could have met him now, and had a chat with him,
:16:19. > :16:20.it would be interesting to sit down and talk to him.
:16:21. > :16:23.Obviously, you could say to him, you were lucky,
:16:24. > :16:28.But then, we probably would have gone on to how much it has changed

:19:47. > :19:52.Can you imagine going out in those heavy seas to that rescue 100 years
:19:53. > :19:56.ago? First, you had to get to the boat, and wrote it, compared to what
:19:57. > :20:04.we have got now, completely different ball game. They wdre men.
:20:05. > :20:08.A lot different to how we h`ve it. Being the coxswain of the S`lcombe
:20:09. > :20:13.lifeboat, that Salcombe bar is very difficult to navigate even with the
:20:14. > :20:16.technology today. We have a very different lifeboat today th`n 1 0
:20:17. > :20:21.years ago, but the weather can be the same and the challenges are
:20:22. > :20:25.getting in across the bar in poor weather, although we have got the
:20:26. > :20:31.speed and we try to come in on a single wave, but occasionally, we
:20:32. > :20:35.look at the bar and we will head towards Plymouth or Brixham because
:20:36. > :20:39.it is too dangerous to come in. All the crew are trained for poor
:20:40. > :20:46.weather, entering back into sulking, any risk at all, we go to Plymouth
:20:47. > :20:50.or Brixham. This makes many people think not just of Salcombe `s a
:20:51. > :20:56.holiday town but very different there was a real heart here. It has
:20:57. > :21:01.been an important day for the community, Salcombe is a lifeboat
:21:02. > :21:05.town. What we wanted to do hs to make sure that we honour thd memory
:21:06. > :21:10.of our colleagues from 1916 and make sure they are never forgottdn and I
:21:11. > :21:16.think we have done that. Trdmendous support from holiday-makers as they
:21:17. > :21:20.watched the flotilla. Yes. What struck me, given we had been
:21:21. > :21:25.planning it from the start, what it would be like now if our bo`t went
:21:26. > :21:37.out and 13 men today didn't come back. It would be devastating. Thank
:21:38. > :21:39.you for inviting us to cover this. From a centenary commemorathon to an

:22:10. > :22:12.of remembrance and hope was taken to the heritage centre wherd,
:22:13. > :22:16.for the first time, an official partnership was signed
:22:17. > :22:19.between the Royal Navy here in the south west,
:22:20. > :22:25.The document allows us to r`ise awareness and allows us
:22:26. > :22:29.to fundraise and do the things we already do but it just ghves us
:22:30. > :22:32.that extra added piece of significance which is important
:22:33. > :22:35.to us and to the Royal Brithsh Legion.
:22:36. > :22:41.It is a really good opportunity to raise awareness about wh`t we do.
:22:42. > :22:45.You have seen the pageantry here today with the standard bearers
:22:46. > :22:49.but we do so much more apart from remembrance.

:23:30. > :23:37.Tradition was the order of the day and fittingly,
:23:38. > :23:41.it was some local shanty singers who entertained the crowds.
:23:42. > :24:06.Another important day coming up but it has been an incredible hhstoric
:24:07. > :24:11.day here in Salcombe for thd whole community. Being here and looking
:24:12. > :24:16.out to sea, it makes you understand how the elements of life can change
:24:17. > :24:28.in an instant. A very moving day in Salcombe. It has been a fairly calm
:24:29. > :24:32.day today. Compare this timd last year and the year before, wd are
:24:33. > :24:36.quite lucky at the moment, some quiet weather.

:24:54. > :25:01.Tomorrow, a similar dated today Some mist and fog patches, slow to
:25:02. > :25:10.clear. Disappointingly cloudy at times but at least it is mild. Not a
:25:11. > :25:13.huge right to change, a bit boring frost keeps saying the same message
:25:14. > :25:18.but I suppose it good news hf you are out and about. Some clott to the
:25:19. > :25:24.north of us capable of prodtcing some rain. This area of high
:25:25. > :25:28.pressure pretty strong and ht dominates the weather as we move
:25:29. > :25:32.into the weekend. Trapped whthin it, a fair amount of cloud, espdcially
:25:33. > :25:36.Saturday and Sunday and that doesn't change as we move into the darlier
:25:37. > :25:41.part of next week. Perhaps on Monday, a better chance to see some
:25:42. > :25:45.sunshine has been very limited indeed today. You could just about
:25:46. > :25:49.make out sticking out of thd top of the moors, some of the highdst tours
:25:50. > :25:58.seeing above the cloud briefly some sunshine. This was Plymouth sound,
:25:59. > :26:03.not a lot of brightness. Calm seas. Relatively quiet conditions for all
:26:04. > :26:06.of our coastal communities. Not much of the sea running now, the high
:26:07. > :26:12.pressure has been with us for awhile and it is likely to stay with us as
:26:13. > :26:19.we into the weekend. It is puiet, cabbage of the sea is betwedn 1 and
:26:20. > :26:21.15 degrees. We could do with a bit more in the way of sunshine. A lot
:26:22. > :26:35.of clout staying overnight. Just allowing those temperatures to
:26:36. > :26:41.get into single figures. Tolorrow, another very similar day. A lot of
:26:42. > :26:44.cloud, a few shallow mist or fog patches, the clouds stubborn to
:26:45. > :26:49.break but in a few places, H think it will let the sunshine in. Top
:26:50. > :27:04.temperature similar to the day at 14 or 15 degrees.
:27:05. > :27:37.I will be back with the latd news but from all of us in the studio,
:27:38. > :27:41.have a good evening.
