The RNLI lifeboat was on scene within 10 minutes and set about attaching a towline to ‘Aint She Sweet’. The casualty was then towed to safety of Porthclais Harbour.
On reaching the entrance of the harbour the tow was passed to the “Kimberley Jane” who secured the casualty onto a mooring.
The lifeboat then proceeded back to station and was rehoused at 12:48pm.
