Tasked to assist a 9 metre yacht with three adults and four young children aboard, reported stationary due to engine failure off Berry Head, Brixham.
Following a check on the welfare of the persons onboard the yacht and assessing the yacht’s situation, the coxswain determined a tow of the yacht back to Brixham Harbour would be the safest option.
After setting the tow, the yacht and her seven occupants were brought safely back to port where they were met by Brixham Coastguard Rescue Team
