A yacht with one person on board was rescued after it broke down at Fryars Bay near Beaumaris.

The RNLI's inshore lifeboat from Beaumaris was sent out at just after 11.45am on Thursday to check on the welfare of the lone sailor after his vehicle suffered engine failure.

The yacht was deemed to be creating a navigational hazard due to the state of the tide, and it was therefore towed to a nearby mooring at Beaumaris.

The sailor was met at the mooring by local coastguards from Penmon.

An RNLI Beaumaris spokesperson said: "The informant did the correct thing in alerting the Coastguard to the situation. This meant our volunteer lifeboat crew were able to reach the location quickly and assess the situation."
