Two Rescued Off Devon Coast

Two men were rescued by a passing fishing vessel after their boat capsized and sank 3.6 miles off Prawle Point.

The boat was on a passage from Plymouth to Brixham when the crew became aware of a problem. With the boat beginning to list heavily, the two men donned lifejackets, boarded the liferaft and activated their EPIRB.
