Emergency services launched a major rescue operation on Saturday evening after two people were reported in the water at Chichester Marina.
The Atlantic 85 lifeboat transported the casualties to the Chichester Marina pontoon, where they were met by members of the Selsey Coastguard Rescue Team and escorted to the Marina office to warm up while awaiting medical assistance.

By this time, Rescue 175 had landed nearby, and its onboard paramedic, along with a fast response ambulance paramedic, provided immediate care.
The casualties were later transported by ambulance to hospital for further treatment. Thanks to the excellent teamwork between the lifeboat crews, Coastguard, helicopter crew, and paramedics, the situation was resolved swiftly and safely.
