At 17:26 Falmouth Coastguard requested that Falmouth Inshore Lifeboat be launched following a request from Ambulance Control for assistance in recovering a person who had fallen off their boat just above Malpas at Sunny Corner on the Truro River. The Falmouth Coastguard Mobile was also tasked to assist.

The Inshore Lifeboat launched from her slipway at 17:26 and headed up the Carrick Roads. At 17:29 it was confirmed that the casualty had been safely recovered and that no further assistance was required so the Inshore Lifeboat was released to return to station.

The Inshore Lifeboat was back on its slipway by 17:35 where it was refuelled, rehoused and was ready for service by 17:45.
