Major Rescue Operation Launched

After Boat Seen Floating Towards Rocks

A major rescue operation was launched on Friday after reports of a vessel broken down and drifting towards rocks.

 

It was reported off Santon Head so the lifeboat, coastguard rescue team and an RAF helicopter were called to the scene.

 

It’s thought to be down to engine failure but both people on board were towed back to the island and are safe and well.
