A windsurfer got into trouble in Southampton water near a popular country park.
The enthusiast riding the waves off Royal Victoria Country Park, in Netley was spotted having difficulties by patrolling Hamble Lifeboat.
The lifeboat team, who stood offshore, kept an eye on the windsurfer while they put in a call to Southampton Coastguard Rescue Team due to the bad weather conditions.
Rescuers arrived to help just as the boarder made it to land. The crew said he was cold and tired but otherwise unhurt.
