Speaking following the call out, Mark McGibney, Dún Laoghaire RNLI lifeboat Coxswain said: "This can happen to anyone but it’s great to see the people involved wearing lifejackets and have the correct means of communication to call the Irish Coast Guard for help, which was the case today.
"I’d like to take this opportunity to ask everyone to make sure that their vessel engines and safety equipment are checked and in working order before taking to the water."
