Lifeboat comes to the help of aquaculture vessel
THE LERWICK lifeboat was tasked earlier this morning (Monday) to assist the live fish carrier Settler which had broken down with gear box problems east of Mousa.
The lifeboat took the 40 metre vessel under tow off Levenwick, arriving back in Lerwick after 9am.
Settler was in the headlines recently when she ran aground in the Kylerhea and Glenelg area off Skye last month.
