TS ROYALIST
A 14-year-old sea cadet has died after falling overboard in the Solent. The boy, from Kent, was on the training ship TS Royalist which was anchored at Stokes Bay south of Gosport, Hampshire. He was climbing the rigging to bring in the sails when he fell 25ft (7.5m) into the sea on Sunday night. The crew retrieved him and sent a Mayday call. The Solent Coastguard helicopter took him to the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth where he was pronounced dead on arrival. An investigation has begun. In a statement, the Marine Society and Sea Cadets said: "The charity is deeply saddened to report that a tragic and fatal accident occurred on sea cadet training vessel TS Royalist on Sunday "The Marine Accident Investigation unit and Hampshire Constabulary are fully reviewing all of the circumstances surrounding the death and the coroner has been notified."
