" My husband had a flashlight and shone it out but we couldn't see Anything - we could just hear him calling. "
She Said when the coastguard arrived: " They asked us to keep The Torch shining and They Went out looking for him. "
The Woman , who wishes to remain anonymous added: " We were just so relieved to hear he had been rescued.
" It was just fortunate that we were there at that Time . - how frightened he must have been. "

The Man , found clinging to a post in the water, was pulled on to The Police boat and treated for hypothermia by an ambulance crew.
GAFIRS coxswain James Baggott said: " He was incredibly lucky. Being in the water for 30 Minutes at This Time of year, in a Storm Force gale with The Sea temperature as it is, he was very lucky to survive.
" He was Swept Away from the tender and left clinging to the Pile - if The Dog walker hadn't raised The Alarm the consequences could have been very different. "
