LIFEBOAT crews were scrambled after reports that a boat had broken down in Dovercourt Bay, Harwich.
Harwich inshore lifeboat and Walton's coastguard team went to the scene on Sunday afternoon but the boat had gone.
It is believed the crew had managed to restart the engine and returned to the shore.
