Sea Cadets, night exercise
Recently the Dunbar Sea Cadets were privileged to go afloat with the Dunbar RNLI Lifeboat Crew on an exciting night exercise.
As part of the Sea Cadet experience our senior cadets are encouraged to learn about the different opportunities that are available to them at sea.
The cadets were able to steer the Offshore Lifeboat (OLB) and learn about flares that are used for illuminating search areas.

Black Agnes rises again!
The Rowing Club has completed a renovation of skiff Black Agnes, resplendent in cream and black, with her hull newly-finished. Soon she will be competing in various regattas and expeditions throughout 2019.
The Rowing Club never rests during the winter, as shown in this dawn photo by Christine Mincher. It's always warm on the water when rowing; sometimes too hot, even in 'deepest mid-winter'.

RNLI: extension to the ramp/slipway
With licences now in place, the RNLI hope to make best use of the low spring tides at the end of February and March, having taken careful note of Craning-In Day and the North Wall Repair project.
The contractor’s compound should be near the bridge approach and an additional area in front of the RNLI station.
The bridge-lift will be coordinated with the harbour master and care will be taken that no temporary works should be placed which would prevent boats going under the bridge near high tide.
