Hi guys,
I was one of the docs coordinating the resuscitation.
I have to say that from having been involved in too many of these things over the years every body involved worked as a team. There was a coordinated professional response from the instant the accident arose; from the guys on the beach who tried to save him from getting blown over the dunes right through to the team of paramedics who took him to Charlie's.
If there was a chance for him then I feel that we really did our best.
He was an experienced sailor who was briefly undermined by a tragic combination of unpredictable conditions.
My heart and thoughts go out to his family
Dr Phil
PS If anyone who was involved in the rescue effort needs or wants to have a talk give me a call (94814342).
Hi Dr Phil,
.......Marc was one of my best mates and I would like to thank you sincerely for your effort and also express my appreciation for the efforts of all of those involved during the attempt to both help and subsequently to revive my dear friend Marc Sprod.
He was a tremendous person and character who would never hesitate to help others in trouble and I feel somewhat comforted knowing that at least someone was there trying to save him when he most needed them - he deserved that.
Thank you
