TheDunmore East RNLI lifeboat was launched in the early hours of this morning.
It's after a 23 metre fishing trawler had run aground with five people onboard half a mile South West of Dunmore East harbour.
They arrived on the scene shortly before 2:30am and it was decided to wait for the tide to rise again before towing the vessel off the rocks.
The five crew onboard were in no immediate danger and were brought safely to the harbour at 7.20am this morning.
