Lifeboat helps stricken yacht

Exmouth's lifeboat has rescued a wooden yacht with a broken mast.

It snapped off yesterday morning eighteen miles south of Lyme Regis, while on its way to Chichester in West Sussex.

Naval Frigate, HMS Kent, helped the lifeboat crew get the twenty four foot vessel with two people on board ready to be towed in. 

She was taken to West Bay harbour.
