The crew from Kinghorn scrambled at 7:25am and headed to Fisherrow Harbour in East Lothian.

The local coastguard and North Berwick Coastguard Rescue Team guided them to small yacht tender from the nearby harbour.

With no signs there had been anyone on board, the boat was taken back to the tender park.
