The Oban lifeboat launched late last night (31st August 2010) at 22.48 to make the short run across Oban Bay to the marina on the Isle of Kerrera.
There she picked up a lady from the yacht, Fred J Noonan, who required hospitalisation.
The Mora Edith MacDonald then took the patient to a waiting ambulance at the lifeboat berth, refuelled and was ready for service again by 23.45.
