Two boats lost in as many days in the Western Approaches.

Early yesterday morning, the 11m fishing boat Sea Bird P283 went down seconds after an RNLI rib took off her two man crew - especially the skipper who saw fit to make sure he left the boat with THE most important item - his EU fishing logbook???!!.....





around the same time this morning, a small tug, the Aquarius was reported to have sunk about 40 miles south of the Lizard while she was making her way from Gibraltar to Plymouth. One man is reported to be missing from the three man crew who were taken off by a French rescue helicopter.
