Boat drifting after running out of fuel
COASTGUARDS are currently helping a vessel which ran out of fuel off the South Coast.
The crew of the motor sailor called the coastguard at 5.52am when they were off St Catherine’s Point on the southern end of the Isle of Wight.
Both are said to be safe and well and the lifeboat from Yarmouth has been sent out to bring them back to the town.
