Lough Swilly lifeboat volunteers came to the aid of a fishing vessel during a successful mission off Fanad Head on Tuesday afternoon. 

The fishing boat was six nautical miles away from shore when it got into difficulty due to a fouled prop.

The Lough Swilly ALB was launched at 1.10pm to assist the crew.

Rescue volunteers attached a tow line to the vessel and landed them at Ballyhoorisky Pier in Fanad.

The mission was a success and no injuries were reported.
