Rescue teams in Stornoway were tasked to rescue a fishing trawler after it began to take on water.
Members of Stornoway lifeboat and the local coastguard rescue team were called to the harbour shortly before 6am this morning.
The stricken vessel is believed to have become stuck under the pier during high tide causing water to flood the deck.
