On Saturday the team were tasked to monitor a vessel on fire off Swanage.
Both Poole RNLI lifeboats along with Swanage RNLI lifeboat were tasked shortly after 5.50pm.
The vessel had a small fire in the engine room and the crew requested assistance.
During the incident one of the crew was taken ill , so the Swanage Lifeboat made at best speed to North Haven and were shortly joined by the Coastguard team whilst an ambulance was called.
After the medical incident the lifeboats returned to take the vessel in tow to Poole.
We would like to thank the crew of the chain ferry for there assistance in this incident.
