A SNAPPED paddle led to a lone kayaker being rescued by Kyle of Lochalsh RNLI’s volunteer crew on Saturday morning.
The Kyle RNLI crew was alerted just before 10am on Saturday to help the paddler, who was reported drifting between the Crowlin and Longay islands.
Kyle lifeboat Spirit of Fred Olsen launched just minutes later and made best speed towards the last known location of the casualty close to Longay island.
