Mayday overheard by Energy Enhancer saved yachtman
On Nov 8, 2011, at 4.42 p.m., Yarmouth Coastguard were contacted by the crew of the "Energy Enhancer", who had heard a brief Mayday call from a man on board a yacht that was possibly on fire approximately 40 miles east of Cromer in Norfolk. The standby vessel "Highland Champion" was en route to investigate, and Yarmouth Coastguard also requested the launch of the Cromer RNLI Lifeboat and sent the Rescue Helicopter from RAF Wattisham to the scene. The offshore patrol vessel HMS "Mersey" was also in the area and sent its fast rescue boat, which arrived on scene first and located the single handed sailor, who had abandoned his yacht for his liferaft. The rescue helicopter met up with HMS "Mersey" 35 miles out to sea and collected the sailor and brought him ashore. The yacht subsequently burnt out and sank.
