April 16th 10:01 Friars bay

Yacht Ocean 326 was motoring from Bangor towards Puffin Island when their engine began to over heat. The 3 on board also reported electrical problems, they were unable to switch their engine off and called for assistance. The Coast Guard were initially unsure of the location of boat in trouble but Beaumaris Lifeboat located the boat next to Friars Bay and rendered assistance. The engine was eventually shut down and casualty towed to a mooring next to Beaumaris pier and crew brought ashore.
