Eight people were rescued by RNLI lifeboat crews in three separate incidents off the Cork and Dublin coasts on Sunday.
On Sunday, a lifeboat launched to help a motorboat that had suffered engine failure about two miles north of Ireland's Eye, an uninhabited island off the coast of Howth. Three people were on board.
