    Exmouth lifeboat called out to trawler

    Exmouth's lifeboat crew were in action last night after a fishing boat began taking in water.


    The Teignmouth-registered trawler Pisces, with three people on board, called for help at about 10pm, while it was between Exmouth and Dawlish.

    The Teignmouth lifeboat reached it first and took the crew off the vessel... they were then transferred to the Exmouth all-weather boat the Margaret Jean, which towed the trawler back to shore.
