Lifeboats were tasked by Belfast Coastguard at 13:49 and requested to go to the aid a jet ski with 2 persons on board in difficulties on the river Blackwater. Lifeboat attended the scene, brought the 2 casualties on board, and towed their vessel to Maghery where we transferred the casualties over to the awaiting coastguard team. Lifeboats returned to base and made ready for the next tasking.
For emergencies on Lough Neagh and it’s tributary rivers call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
