A Dundee man who has volunteered on board the local lifeboats for more than three decades has been named its new coxswain.
Peter Hay joined the RNLI in February 1988 and over the course of 34 years has crewed both all-weather and in-shore lifeboats. He was named deputy second coxswain - the lead crew member who helms the boat - in 2009.
He picked up a Queen's Platinum Jubilee medal for time served in the emergency services, adding to medals from the Diamond and Golden Jubilees as well as a long service medal from the lifeboat charity itself. Broughty Ferry Lifeboat announced Peter's appointment on Monday, shortly after legendary predecessor Murray Brown hung up his overalls for the last time.
