Happy lady blows Coastguard helicopter kisses after rescue in Scotland (with footage)

Sometimes we get thank you letters, sometimes we get kisses when we need it most....in fact that's exactly what our Stornoway Coastguard helicopter got from one lovely lady in a dinghy a few weeks ago after her and her partner needed a little help on Loch Broom, Scotland.

UK Coastguard received a call from a member of the public reporting to us that two people in a dinghy might be in difficulty so we sent in the Ullapool coastguardRNLI Lochinver Lifeboat, Achiltibuie Inshore Rescue Team and the Ullapool Harbour workboat to the scene. We also sent the UK Coastguard helicopter based at Stornaway just in case.

As you can see the couple were safe and well and towed to safety by the Ullapool Harbour workboat. Great work all round and thanks for brightening our weekend with a kiss!
