Buckie lifeboat was launched onto service around 6.30pm on Saturday.
Lifeboat crews searched for nearly three hours to find a yacht in thick fog.
Buckie lifeboat was launched at about 6.30pm on Saturday after a distress call was received from the crew.
The RNLI crew, along with their colleagues from Macduff, battled through thick fog as they attempted to locate and make contact with the vessel.
The yacht was located at Burghead Harbour at around 9.30pm.
It is believed the sailman was trying to reach the harbour at Buckie, but got confused in the fog and ended up at Burghead.
Coastguard teams were returned to base shortly after finding the vessel.
