The unit was donated £1750 from the Danny Boy Trust to help with the payment for the three yoles purchased by the unit. To commemorate this all three boats have had a Danny Boy Trust sticker put on the stern and the trustees of the Trust came down to the unit on the 7th April during our Easter Training Weekend to present them to us before we used them for the first time.
