A yacht had run out of fuel and the skipper was having difficulty in sailing from the PuffinIsland area into the MenaiStraits due to the adverse wind direction.  The lifeboat was launched to render assistance and the yacht was towed to the casualty mooring in Friar's Bay.  The crew were taken ashore.

The unmanned tender found floating near Puffin Island, which was taken ashore by the Beaumaris lifeboatearlier in the afternoon belonged to this yacht.
