The call of the open sea is strong among people who have been confined for more than two months. Especially since a new extended sunny weekend, that of Pentecost, begins this Friday evening. In view of the very large number of interventions made by the volunteers of the National Society for Sea Rescue during the Ascension Bridge, the president of the SNSM calls on the responsibility of boaters.

It is true that compared to the weekend of Ascension 2019, the absolute number is less important, we were out 109 times. But in proportion, the accidentology was significantly higher for Ascension 2020 because there was half the activity at sea due to the confinement than last year. ”
