A stricken lobster boat radioed for help after breaking down off North Uist.
The sole fisherman onboard had been working creels in the area near the small island of Boreray when he raised the alarm on Friday evening.
Barra lifeboat launched while Lochmaddy and Benbecula coastguard teams mobilised.
The fisherman managed to restart the engine and headed to the nearest harbour - Griminish, North Uist.
