A 26-foot yacht had to be guided to port by the Ilfracombe RNLI after getting into difficulties in the early hours of Easter Sunday.
The Ilfracombe RNLI lifeboat was tasked on April 4, 2021 at 4.31 am by the Coastguard to assist a yacht with a ruptured fuel line, six miles north west of Bull Point, near Mortehoe.
The RNLI volunteer crew were woken by the pagers going off at 4.31am and a few minutes later assembled at the station. The RNLI Shannon class all-weather lifeboat The Barry and Peggy High Foundation was quickly launched at almost low tide, and made good speed in calm conditions with little wind out towards Bull Point.
