Ramsgate lifeboat has been launched to rescue a yacht that had previously spent two days ‘sitting’ on Ramsgate’s main beach.
The Island Girl was left on the beach on Thursday (July 4). It relaunched but has now had to be rescued after suffering engine failure just off Ramsgate beach.

The inshore lifeboat volunteer crew have towed the yacht, which had one person onboard, into Ramsgate Harbour.
