Fire in English Canal
The "Francine - Z 90" suffered a fire in the afternoon of Mar 2, 2016, 32 miles south of Lizard Point in the English Canal. The Lizard lifeboat was launched, a helicopter of the Coastguard airlifted three injured crewmen, they were taken to the Truro hospital. Three other crewmen suffered smoke inhalation. The crew managed to extinguish the fire, and the vessel sailed under own power to Newlyn harbor, where it docked the same day. The lifeboat returned at 4.45 p.m. Reports with photos and videos: http://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/VIDEO-Dolphins-join-dramatic-rescue-sea-rips/story-28848757-detail/story.html http://rnli.org/NewsCentre/Pages/The-Lizard-RNLI-lifeboat-launches-to-a-30m-beam-trawler-with-a-fire-on-board.aspx
