Yacht discovered drifting boat
The Oban lifeboat "Mora Edith MacDonald" was called into action by the Coastguard on June 18, 2018, after receiving reports of a yacht adrift in the Sound of Mull. At 3.02 p.m. the lifeboat was called out following a yacht being discovered adrift in the Sound of Mull, off Craignure. The RNLI crew left the berth with seven members aboard at 3.09 p.m. and proceeded to Craigure, rendezvousing with the yacht, which had been taken in tow by the "Alba Explorer" in the meantime. The lifeboat came alongside the yacht, transferring two crew onto the vessel and establishing an alongside tow. The yacht was checked and is believed to have broken free from a mooring in Craignure Bay. The yacht was towed to Craignure, leaving her on her mooring at 4.15 p.m. under observation from Craignure Coastguard Rescue Team. The Oban lifeboat then left Craignure, arriving back in Oban at 4.52 p.m. Report iwth photo: https://www.obantimes.co.uk/2018/06/19/oban-lifeboat-rescues-drifting-yacht/
