A spokesman for the lifeboat said the men looked "very worried" as they returned to Southampton by bus.

they "looked worried" no s**t Sherlock. do you think the Chuckle Brothers had insurance ?

Had a look at the Sealine this morning. She's on blocks in Penryn. What a mess, mashed under the waterline, a total loss. Cornish wreckers managed to have it off with the plotter before she was hauled out. Apparently, the delivery crew may have been asleep. They've both now disappeared.

So it "had " a plotter... Anyone seen that picture of the german cabin cruiser high and dry on the corner of a river bend? Went up the bank full tilt, seemingly there was some below decks distraction...

Maybe the delivery crew flogged it in the pub the night before they left. That might explain a few things
