Sailors rescued from sinking yacht after hitting breakwater

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

“It 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.
