A call to the Coastguard just after midday , stating a male on a vessel in Swanage was having a heart attack saw one of the new devices taken to the scene.
The vessel made its way to the pier to be met by the emergency services. A RNLI crewman hearing event on the radio also attended.
The Coastguard team arrived and one of the team obtained the Defibrillator from the Rowing Club close to the pier.
Thankfully on arrival the male didn't require the device and shortly after a paramedic turned up to take over the medical care.
The AED was checked and returned to the cabinet ready for service.
The male was treated by South Western Ambulance.
