"I volunteer with NCI for a variety of reasons, but as somebody who goes to sea in small boats it is a way of helping “pay back” into the UK maritime system that helps keep us sailors safe." Dave Peace, Training Officer at NCI Froward Point #VolunteersWeek #EyesAlongTheCoast

NCI Froward Point is based at an old battery station built in World War 2. The old bomb blast shutters are still a feature. At the start and of daily Watches, these have to let down and hauled up. They're heavy!

Sail Training ship Tenacious passed NCI Froward Point around midday yesterday. I caught up with it whilst waiting for it to pass on the ferry back to Dartmouth after the morning watch.
