Heard the chap on the VHF talking to coastguard about him sinking in the Lymington channel on Wednesday. I think he put it aground to save going down with a passing boat standing by. I hope he and his boat were ok. Does anyone know the outcome of this?

Thanks for the link. It was the motor boat. Pleased to hear it went ok, I did feel for the skipper listening to his exchanges with the coastguard.
