FLINT Coastguard was launched to a drifting vessel deemed 'hazard to shipping'.
The team was launched at 12.20pm on Wednesday (November 13) to investigate the vessel on the River Dee.
Flint R.N.L.I Lifeboat had also self launched as the vessel was 'deemed a hazard to shipping', the coastguard said.
Flint Lifeboat towed the vessel to Connah’s Quay slipway where it was recovered out of the water to prevent any further issues.
Coastguard Rescue Officers made some local enquires where it was established the vessel was not from Connah’s Quay.
All units were subsequently stood down.
