Some of those on the yacht were showing signs of fatigue and sea sickness

Two children were onboard a yacht on Wednesday when the equipment had failed, sparking a major launch operation.

As the All-Weather lifeboat approached Newcastle harbour Coxswain, Gerry McConkey, requested the assistance of the station’s inshore lifeboat to provide support on the last part of the journey and to tow the vessel into harbour. The yacht was then towed into Newcastle harbour where it was secured and all on board brought ashore and to the lifeboat station, where the crew were able to provide casualty care.
