The lifeboat was called to a young boy who was drifting out to sea in a small inflatable dinghy from Leven Beach. The crew arrived to find that the boy had jumped out of the dinghy, about half a mile off the beach. He was eventually found 1/4 mile from the dinghy, severely hypothermic and nearly drowned.
