Sailors rescued from sinking yacht after hitting breakwater

A TRIO was rescued from a sinking yacht after it crashed into Plymouth's breakwater.

The Lady Larissa sustained a hole to the front of the vessel and a missing rudder when it hit the east end of the breakwater last night.

β€œIt started at 11.50pm when we got the first call. The yacht reported it was taking on water and facing difficulty,” said a spokesman for Brixham Coastguard.

The coastguard put out a broadcast for any vessels nearby to assist and a MoD police boat responded and stayed with the yacht until the RNLI lifeboats arrived
