Llandudno Lifeboat volunteers responded to a distress call from a 30-foot yacht off Puffin Island over the weekend.
The yacht had engine failure on Saturday afternoon and was unable to make progress.
The crew launched the All Weather Lifeboat and successfully towed the yacht to safety in Conwy.
Following the successful rescue, the lifeboat made its way back to Llandudno to prepare for recovery and ensure readiness for any further call-outs.
Lifeboat Operations Manager, Capt. Marcus Elliott said: "This incident highlights the vital role RNLI volunteers play in ensuring the safety of those at sea. The crew’s swift response and professionalism ensured that all individuals on board the yacht were brought safely to shore without injury."
