An RNLI volunteer lifeboat crew meeting was brought to a sudden halt yesterday evening after a sailing yacht with two adults and a baby on board got into difficulty.
The inshore lifeboat was launched to rescue the stricken yacht, which had suffered engine failure while transiting between the Twin Sails and Old Lifting Bridge.
