The crew of a fishing boat have been rescued from a life raft after their vessel ran aground in Aberdeenshire.
The dramatic incident took place at around 5.50am on Monday October 24 when Fraserburgh RNLI were alerted to The Ocean Maid BA55 having got into difficulty at Cairnbulg Point.
The all-weather lifeboat raced to the scene shortly after 6am and Coastguard teams from Peterhead and Fraserburgh also scrambled to the scene, making for a hefty operation, reports AberdeenLive.
