On March 29, Venetia Wrigley met the crew and other personnel at their weekly training session.

She was given a tour of the all-weather Shannon lifeboat before it launched for a joint exercise with the coastguards helicopter, postponed from Sunday afternoon because of fog.

Mrs Wrigley, who lives at Ganton Hall, stayed for two and a half hours, long enough to watch the Shannon beach itself as part of the recovery process.
