Description:
The annual operation to crane the boats back into Tenby harbour waters took place today, on a misty morning at the seaside town.<br/>The sight of the vessels being lifted back into the sea, traditionally draws spectators viewing from vantage points around the picturesque harbour, and is seen as a date in the calendar to mark the official start of the holiday season in the seaside town, despite the lift this year falling after the Easter holidays.<br/>The lift was due to take place on Wednesday, but owing to the windy weather and a large sea swell, the operation was rescheduled for Thursday, April 11, with crane arriving at Tenby harbour at around 5 am, and the exercise completed by late morning.<br/>With the weather being so choppy over the past couple of weeks, boats over to Caldey Island haven’t been able to run as frequently, since the Island opened for the season last month.<br/>Ahead of the lift - the annual ‘Blessing of The Boats’ service took place at St Julian’s Church (known as the ‘little church on the harbour’) last month.<br/><br/>Pics: @Gareth Davies Photography<br/>Video: @Tenby Observer

The charity relies solely on donations and is 100% voluntary led.<br/>After being medically discharged from the Armed Forces, Daisy has gone on to experience multiple successes including being a professional P1 powerboat racer having been crowned multiple times champion alongside her brother Sam who now races in the Electric E1 Boat Racing series, for one of the world’s most successful sports stars, seven-times American Football Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.<br/>Having hung up her race boots and returning to Pembrokeshire to support the family business and pursue her charitable ambitions in the locality, Daisy embodies the unwavering spirit of resilience and determination in taking on such an extraordinary challenge to raise funds for the AFPST by embarking on a courageous journey to Everest Base Camp. <br/>Daisy has just returned from AFPST’s Winter Endeavour in Colorado which saw 14 international athletes join the AFPST cohort for an Invictus Games Foundation camp in advance of the first Invictus Winter Games being held in Vancouver-Whistler, Canada in 2025. <br/>The hallmark Winter Games event will mark a decade of successful Invictus Games whereby over 500 wounded, injured and sick (WIS) veterans and service personnel will experience the power of competitive sports and proudly represent their nation on an international level against 25 nations in total. <br/>Daisy, as an active member of the snowboarding team, turned her feet to Nordic skiing to take advantage of the high terrain and maximise the training opportunity ahead of the Everest trek.<br/>With each arduous event Daisy tackles, she aims to inspire others by pushing the boundaries of what is perceived as possible. By taking on the monumental task of conquering Everest Base Camp, she seeks to motivate individuals to tap into their inner strength and realise their true potential along with 19 other wounded, injured and sick veteran, athletes and serving personnel.<br/>You can help Daisy reach her fundraising goal by donating at the following link:<br/>https://www.justgiving.com/page/p1daisy-ebc <br/>")
