Lifeboat crews had a busy weekend with three call outs on Sunday
Jersey's lifeboat service said it was a busy and long weekend after crews were called out five times in four days.
The RNLI said it believed it was because people were making the most of the fine weather.
A spokesman said crews helped an upturned sailing boat, an engine fire and rescued people from near Icho Tower on Sunday.
He said the call outs started on Thursday with a dismasted yacht and a search for a missing fisherman.
The spokesman said: "The number of incidents is reflective of the fine weather and disappointing summer so far in 2012."
