On Sep 14, 2010, at 8.15 a.m. Falmouth Coastguard was contacted by the master of the "Sea Marlin" who had received a pan pan urgency call via VHF. They were able to identify from the call that a yacht had become dismasted and was in difficulty. They relayed the urgency call which was made by the yacht's crew on their handheld radio to Falmouth Coastguard which asked the master of the tanker if he would turn around his vessel to provide a communications link and standby the yacht until the arrival of the lifeboat. He duly obliged and stood by the yacht and created a lee. The Penlee RNLI lifeboat was requested to launch and now has the yacht under tow and the tanker was continuing its passage.
