#RNLI - Wicklow RNLI assisted two fishermen on a six-metre fishing boat in difficulties off Kiloughter beach on Friday morning (5 June).
The lifeboat, with three volunteer crew, launched at 8.55am following a report that the boat had a rope caught in its propeller.
After locating the fishing vessel drifting four miles north of Wicklow Harbour, they managed to free the rope from the propeller allowing the fishermen to get underway and resume fishing.
The lifeboat crew returned to station once the Irish Coast Guard was satisfied the fishing vessel required no further assistance.
The crew on this callout were helm Graham Fitzgerald, Alan Goucher and Terry Sillery.
