Monday Lifeboat shout

Today the St. Mary's Lifeboat went to the assistance of the yacht Ocean Hobo which was taking on water faster than her pump could manage . She was on a mooring in New Grimsby Channel after coming round from Old Grimsby. The Lifeboat put a pump onto the yacht and cleared the water then when the tide had come in and escorted her to St. Mary's Harbour where she went alongside the Old Quay to dry out and assess any damage .
