The inshore and all weather lifeboats were called on Friday around 4.20pm to a report of a kitesurfer off Lancing Beach who had become tangled in his board lines.
According to the RNLI, the kitesurfer had fired two red flares to alert the coastguard, but had then managed to untangle himself and get ashore safely as the lifeboats were proceeding.
