Clogherhead RNLI volunteers were called upon to assist a disabled vessel off the northeast coast near Clogherhead.
Clogherhead Coast Guard requested that Clogherhead RNLI volunteers launch the Shannon class all-weather lifeboat on Sunday, 16th June, at approximately 4.30 p.m. to aid a vessel that had become disabled off the coast of Clogherhead.
Weather conditions were favourable, with calm seas and good visibility. It took seven minutes from launching on the beach for the lifeboat to reach the scene where the disabled vessel was. It had already been secured by tow to another vessel when they arrived. Clogherhead RNLI volunteers were requested to accompany both vessels to the security of nearby Port Oriel Harbour, Clogherhead, as a precaution, which they duly did.
