HM Coastguard paged LNR at 22:05 to a 40ft racing vessel with 2 persons on board that was drifting without power around Blackards Rock with no anchor or navigation lights. As Ardboe and Kinnego Lifeboats launched Coastguard informed them that the casualty vessel had regained engine power and made its way back to the Battery Harbour. Both Lifeboats then returned to base.
For emergencies on Lough Neagh and it’s tributary rivers call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
