Two people and a yacht rescued by Peel RNLI

Fri, 30 May 2014

Peel lifeboat was launched late last night to assist a yacht.

It was travelling from Portaferry to the Island with two people on board - and was found in difficulty 20-miles west of Peel.

The volunteer crew went to the assistance of 'Cruachan' - which had multiple gear failure.

No-one was hurt, and the vessel was taken in tow to Peel harbour, arriving in to dock at 1:15am.
