Rib needs a tow home

Boat Launched : Atlantic 85

Date : Friday 25 October

Launched at : 19:00

Returned at : 19:50

Weather : Fine but with a F4 SSW Wind

Solent Coastguard asked us to go to assist a 10.5 m rib with engine failure some 200yards from its home port Northney Marina. The Coastguard had already tried other vessels or commercial boats to assist but without success, so the Atlantic 85 went to the casualty, set up an alongside tow and took the boat to its berth in the Marina.
