Let down by those ashore.
A 19 year old fisherman from Mulrankin in Ireland was airlifted from his boat after badly crushing a finger. What followed left him shocked and annoyed with the health care he recieved once ashore. After being safely delivered to a hosptial by SAR helicopter he then, apparently, spent hours awaiting medical attention - the boat may have just as well steamed for home. It would be good to think that this would not happen here - and from recent incidents of a similar nature is highly unlikely.
