RNLI Penarth

One person has been rescued from a disbaled yacht in the Bristol Channel.

The RNLI at Penarth responded to a Mayday call from a 25ft vessel between Flat Holm and Steepholm Island at around 10.30pm on Wednesday night.

The Atlantic 85 lifeboat located the yacht, which was towed back to Barry Harbour and secured to a mooring, while the lone person on board was taken back to shore.

The RNLI at Barry Dock assisted with the yacht's return.
