RNLI crew in Ramsey have played host to their Royal Navy colleagues.
Crewmen from the minehunter HMS Ramsey paid a visit to the lifeboat station in the town whose name their ship bears on Wednesday night.
There they carried out practice drills including dealing with a man falling overboard.
Kim Holland is the deputy launching authority of Ramsey RNLI and has been on the crew 25 years - he says it was a pleasure to take the party out for a trip in the lifeboat:
