Gravesned RNLI rescues stricken crewman
A stricken crewman was rescued yesterday (March 12) from a ship in Gravesend.
The Gravesend RNLI lifeboat was launched at 1.37pm to a person taken unwell on board a refuelling ship in Gravesend Reach.
The crewman had to be taken from the ship and taken ashore.
The ship's agent had already made an appointment for the crew member to see a nearby doctor once ashore.
