A Lifeboat crew braved gale-force winds and stormy conditions to rescue a Highland man stranded on a boat.
The RNLI team were paged at the request of the Stornoway Coastguard to assist after the individual became stuck on the boat at Glenelg Bay yesterday evening.
The man was unable to get off his small boat due to the high winds and the large swell.
The crew transferred the man on board the lifeboat and headed for the jetty in the village.
However due to the bad conditions and debris in the water, the lifeboat was unable to get alongside and it was decided to transfer the man to the Glenelg Ferry slipway instead.
Once the casualty was safely ashore, the crew then returned to Kyle where the boat was refuelled.
