"The winds were around 35 knots and made the flight
quick but made the winch rescue quite challenging. It was
quite tricky maintaining a hover over the divers, but we managed to
get the divers off the rock, one at a time, quickly...
Once they were both on shore we checked them and they were
unhurt, but very grateful to be back on solid land".
