Serene - The Coble that Sank

This fishing coble sank in South Bay last Tuesday after getting the anchor rope snared up in the propeller in a rough sea. There's a proper fishing term for it that the Yorkshire Belle crew used for this happening....but I can't remember what it is for the life of me. Four crew were rescued but the boat sank despite all efforts to save it.

The crew were working away at it today, I'm told that it is in the process of being dismantled as the boat is a write off. The good news is that the insurance is coming through/bad news in 6 weeks, so hopefully the crew will be back in action soon. Sad sight to see though, as basically it's a teams livelihood stuck in sand.
