Lifeboats paged by coastguard at 19.18. Tasked to a boat run aground south of Coney Island.
Boats launched and quickly located the vessel on the way to Coney. Crew were deployed with a tow line to try and refloat the vessel. A tow line was attached to the stern of the vessel and was able to be refloated into deeper water.
The vessel was then checked over to make sure it was safe and was able to make its own way back.
Lifeboats returned to base @21.15, refuelled, washed and made ready for next tasking.
