New kit for Island's RNLI

Volunteers at four of the Island's lifeboat stations have received new and improved kit.

The all-weather clothing is designed to keep Douglas, Ramsey, Port St mary and Peel RNLI crews safe, warm and dry.

Made by designer Helly Hansen - the waterpoof outfits are lighter, more comfortable and designed to allow greater freedom of movement. 

Mechanic at Douglas Lifeboat Station, Tony Radcliffe, says the designs - which will replace the existing one - are ideal for more demanding tasks and tougher conditions.
