Wells lifeboat met up with Cromer lifeboat on the Docking Shoal, approximately 10 miles North of Wells, during Sunday's practice launch. This was partly to say farewell to long-standing Cromer volunteer Coxswain Ady Woods who is standing down after more than 30 years on the Cromer crew.
Ady joined Cromer lifeboat at 17, at first on the inshore lifeboat and later on the all-weather lifeboat. He took on the role of joint Coxswain with fellow crew -member Ady Barker in 2018.
All at Wells station would like to wish Ady all the best for the future.
