Fishermen rescued after boat runs aground on banks of loch
A group of fishermen have been rescued after their boat ran aground and was stranded on the banks of a loch in the Highlands. The volunteer crew of the Oban lifeboat were paged at 7.30am on Friday, November 1, after the coastguard rescue centre received a report from a fishing boat that it had suffered steering issues. With all its crew accounted for and no injuries, the lifeboat left the scene but made arrangements to return in the afternoon when the tide was rising, to assist with re-floating the vessel. more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 09:14
