Rescuers save 11 in two dramatic Cork sea operations hours apart
The boat had lost all power and was struggling in the conditions at sea.
Two people had to be rescued in the early hours of Friday morning after their yacht ran into trouble off the coast of Cork.
The Courtmacsherry all-weather lifeboat was called out to the Old Head of Kinsale at 3.40am to assist a 40-foot yacht taking on water about 21 miles south of the coast.
