Kieran de Loughrey, Kevin Heenan and Barry Shaughnessy, from the Kilkee rescue service (Tom Byrne)
When we set off from Kilkee to Pouladay Rocks it was quite still, very cold and overcast. We travelled at about 15-20 knots until we reached the co-ordinates. I was worried that the light was too poor to take good photographs but literally, and I mean literally, when we shut off the engine at the exact spot, the sun burst through and you see the results in the photos. I hope you will treasure them as it was an emotional experience for us too. None of us spoke until we got back to Kilkee.
