At 05:26 Falmouth Coastguard requested that Falmouth All Weather Lifeboat be launched to standby the 35m Sailing Vessel Signe which had reported running aground on Black Rock. The pilot boat L K Mitchell was already in attendance.

The All Weather Lifeboat left its pontoon berth at 05:38 and arrived on scene at 05:49. The Signe was just in the process of refloating itself so the lifeboat stood by while the skipper and crew carried out checks of the vessel. The Sailing Vessel was then escorted into the Inner Harbour before the lifeboat was released to return to station at 06:15.

The All Weather Lifeboat was back alongside its pontoon berth by 06:22. The lifeboat was then refuelled, and was ready for service by 06:35.
