RNLI assists small boat with engine problems

Small pleasure craft found on the way to port Soderick

A small pleasure craft has been rescued by the lifeboat in Port Soderick.

Douglas RNLI crews were called out at about 7.20pm last night, after the boat encountered engine problems.

The lifeboat met the craft just off the Marine Drive Toll Gate heading towards Douglas.

The three passengers of the boat had fixed the issue, however the lifeboat still escorted them safely back to Douglas harbour.
