Scarborough Lifeboat Rescue For Stricken Yacht

A sailing yacht needed help from Scarborough RNLI on Wednesday evening, just off the town's coast.

Scarborough RNLI's all-weather lifeboat was called out to reports of a 30-foot sailing yacht suffering engine trouble and insufficient wind to sail.

Arriving on the scene, around six miles from Scarborough, the volunteer crew towed the yacht and brought her and her crew back to the safety of Scarborough Harbour.

The RNLI added that if you see anyone injured or in distress, on the coast, dial 999 and ask for the coastguard.
