Sligo Bay Lifeboat assisted four people after their boat got into difficulty yesterday evening.
The lifeboat had been attending another call-out near Aughris Head in Sligo and were returning back to base in Rosses Point when they came upon the boat.
The lifeboat then towed the boat - which had just started to experience problems - back to shore.
Prior to that rescue, the boat was launched just after 7 pm following a call from a person on shore to assist a boat located off Tra Bhui close to Aughris Head.
Following a search of that area the lifeboat was stood down.
