A spokesperson for the Wyke Coastguard Rescue Team said: “We were tasked at 8.15pm to meet Weymouth Lifeboat on Alpha Pontoon, Weymouth Harbour.

“They had towed a yacht from a position close to Portland Bill light after a crewman suffered an injury.

“Wyke secured the vessel alongside, and provided casualty care and shelter until a South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust arrived on the scene.”

Later on Saturday at 10.56pm the Wyke Coastguard team were called to assist the Portland Bill Coastguard team with a missing person but they were stood down en route.
