Oban lifeboat launched to help broken-down ship in west coast

Rescue teams have been called out to help a broken-down ship in the west coast.

Stornoway Coastguard was alerted after the cabin cruiser – known as Sula – began taking on water while sailing in Loch Linnhe, at about 4.30pm.

Oban Lifeboat was subsequently launched and is now towing the vessel, which has one crew member on board, to Dunstaffnage.
