Dover Lifeboat went to the aid of a yacht becalmed in the busy shipping lanes in the Channel.

The crew were alerted around 11.20am following a call to the coastguard from the four people on a board the 12-metre ketch Jigsaw that they were not moving, some 10 miles out from Dover.

The lifeboat crew towed the yacht back to the safety of Dover Harbour, arriving just before 2pm.
