A jet-skier was rescued on Saturday night after they got into difficulty.
The Lough Swilly RNLI where paged by Malin Head Coast Guard at 9.25pm to assist the person.
The jetski had developed mechanical problems just off Saltpans.
The Inshore Lifeboat was launched and the volunteer crew quickly established a tow and took the jetski to the safety of Inch Pier.
The crew then returned to Ned’s Point to refuel and make ready for service.
Commenting on last nights service call, Joe Joyce from Lough Swilly commended the quick actions of both the casualty and the volunteer crew.
He said, the jetski owner was very experienced and had all the proper safety equipment including a handheld radio.
He added that he did the right thing asking for assistance.
He also thanked the crew for turning out so quickly in numbers on a Saturday night.
Remember if you’re in difficulty in or on the water, dial 999 or 112 and ask for the Coast Guard.
