Kayaker gives funds to RNLI Withernsea after ‘terrifying ordeal’

Mr Meli, who has been sea fishing from a kayak for seven years, drove almost 90 miles (144.8km) from his home in Balderton, near Newark, hoping to catch his first smooth hound fish.

Before launching the kayak, the builder said he made sure he was prepared with the correct equipment, including a lifejacket and VHF radio for emergencies.

But after a few hours, he suddenly felt the back end “lift up and tip over” plunging him into the cold North Sea.

“I swam as fast as I could back to my kayak and clung on the side of it,” he said.
