Lifeboat goes to aid of stranded yacht        30/9/14

 

Stornoway RNLI lifeboat went to the rescue of 12 people onboard a disabled motor yacht.


The yacht suffered an electrical problem and had broken down by the Shiant Isles, off Harris, on Monday afternoon.


The volunteer RNLI crew set up a tow between the two vessels and the yacht, called the Incorrigible, was towed into Loch Shell.


The Stornoway RNLI Lifeboat returned to berth after a five hour service.
