Tenby’s all-weather lifeboat launched shortly after 1.15 pm on Monday following a call to Milford Haven Coastguard from the single occupant of a 15-foot fishing vessel reporting engine failure approximately two miles south-east of Trewent Point.

The lifeboat was soon on scene and went alongside the casualty vessel where the skipper requested a tow back to Stackpole. Once at Stackpole, the Y-boat was launched to tow the vessel into the slipway.
