Men rescued after inflatable duck drifts offshore

заголовок: BBC

After three guys on a huge inflatable duck had to be rescued close to a Devon beach, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) issued a warning to those who would otherwise take inflatables out to sea.
The News International
After five minutes, they had drifted out about 75 metres from the beach and the friend in the kayak was unsuccessfully trying to push them back to shore.
Belfast Telegraph
The coastguard was called when the inflatable was 200 metres offshore.
Guardian
The RNLI urged people never to take an inflatable toy into the sea as "with the strong tides and offshore breezes of the Bristol Channel... there is no way to control these and they get pulled out from shore within seconds".
