An unmanned 14 foot sailing dinghy, adrift in mid-Solent, became the focus of Cowes RNLI lifeboat today (Friday).
After launching at 3.33pm, the lifeboat found the dinghy well off Fishbourne.
The dinghy, which had taken on a lot of water, and appeared to be linked to a Portsmouth sailing club, was given a slow alongside tow to Cowes Harbour.
The dinghy, with a harbour launch also now in attendance, was duly delivered to Shepards Marina.
