RNLI Salcombe All Weather Life Boat ‘The Baltic Exchange III’ was launched to help a 70ft motor vessel which had suffered complete engine failure.

The vessel with four people onboard was drifting approximately 10 miles South West of Bolt Head.

Once located the Lifeboat was able to bring the casualty vessel under control, help her into Salcombe Harbour and placed on a deep water mooring with the help of the Harbour staff.
