Spotted a white streak with an orange top zooming out of Mount's Bay, it was of course the Penlee Lifeboat the Ivan Ellen. I looked on the Ship Plotter and saw that the environmental research vessel Discovery was heading towards the bay listing Penzance as her destination.
Newlyn Lifeboat website has now stated that they met Discovery 9 miles out and did indeed evacuate a person that was unwell and needed hospital treatment.

They were met by an ambulance in Newlyn where the person was then taken to Treliske
