The Lifesaving Society has honoured a boat captain with a medal of merit for rescuing two canoeists from Dodd Narrows in April 2022
A boat captain has been honoured with a prestigious award for taking swift action to save the lives of two people whose canoe capsized last year at Dodd Narrows.“I was super excited about it. It’s an honour to be recognized for something like that and it was also a huge surprise for me,” said Menezes, the marine operations manager of Vancouver Island Whale Watch.
“It happened really fast and in this kind of situation you have to think fast as well,” said Menezes. “Just a little bit cold from the water but other than that they were doing just fine so it was a huge relief once I took them out of the water.” “Rodrigo’s boat operation experience and the fact his tour group was in the area at the right time prevented a much more serious result and for that we present him today with a silver medal for merit,” the presentation said in part.Sign up for our newsletter to get breaking news and daily digests sent to your email.The Lifesaving Society’s executive director, Leana Grace, praised Menezes’ decisive actions.
