Friday June 11th Penmon Beach

An anchored yacht gave out a Pan Pan call as it drifted onto rocks. Cerismar II stood by until Beaumaris Lifeboat reached the scene to provide a tow. It immediately became clear the yacht was sinking after being pulled off the rocks. Two lifeboat crew went aboard with a pump but nothing could be done to save the yacht which went down within minutes. The two yachtsmen were taken to Penmon beach by the lifeboat.
