Weymouth lifeboat Tony Vandervell returns to Weymouth Harbour with the Poole-based yacht Piepenhannes in tow. The yacht fouled a propeller on a pot line at Lulworth Cove on September 6, 1987 and ran aground. A local fishing boat helped her off and she was moored to the Army Range Buoy. Portland Coastguards alerted Weymouth lifeboat at 1415 and she slipped her moorings II minutes later, arriving at the casualty at 1455. The weather at the entrance to Lulworth Cove was poor, with a force 8 south-westerly gale creating large, rough seas. Coxswain/Mechanic Derek Sargent decided to attach a tow and the Piepenhannes was towed safely into harbour, the lifeboat remooring at 1755..
