Launched 21:18, Rehoused 22:45

The Atlantic 75 ‘Brandy Hole’ Lifeboat was launched to assist a 22ft motorcruiser which had suffered a suspected overheated engine.

The vessel was believed to be in the River Roach. When the Lifeboat arrived on scene, a tow was secured and the cruiser was taken back to Essex Marina.

The Lifeboat then returned to station where she was washed down and refuelled ready for her next service.
