‘You never know when it’s going to be… but one day you’ll lose concentration – and you’ll be in.’

The above quote is from Ian Scott who fell into oily, black, cold water from a friends boat while moored in a marina. Luckily that day, to set a good example to his son he was wearing a lifejacket, which he believes saved his life.

This is taken from a real life story - the full version can be seen in the RNLI's Offshore magazine ‘Offshore news’.
