Mariners warned about sunken fishing boat

Seafarers approaching a Northern Irish harbour are being warned about a Manx fishing vessel which sank at the weekend.

The Northern Ireland Fishery Harbour Authority has issued a notice to mariners about the Sara Lena.

The Castletown-registered fishing vessel sank after running aground on rocks outside Ardglass harbour.

The notice says the boat isn't a navigation hazard, but boats should be aware of floating and sunken debris and sailors should exercise caution entering or leaving the harbour.
