An RNLI Lifeboat was called into action in West Cork at the height of last night's storm surge.
Paul Stevens, from Castletownbere Lifeboat, says they got a call that a 33-foot fishing boat was stranded after losing power in Bere Haven Harbour.
The crew went out and managed to tow the boat to safety in difficult conditions.
