Two people have been rescued after their boat ran aground off the Moray coast.
Coastguard teams, lifeboats and a coastguard helicopter went to the scene near Hopeman, which sits a few miles west of Lossiemouth along the coast of the Moray Firth, after the alarm was raised at around 8pm on Monday.
Members of the Burghead Coastguard Rescue teams waded out to the stricken vessel, a 15ft motor cruiser, and helped the two people on board back to shore.
Buckie RNLI all weather lifeboat and the Moray inshore rescue boat were also at the scene.
There were no reports of any injuries.
