US Coastguard launches rescue mission for UK sailors

Help

The US coastguard has launched another rescue mission to try and help three British sailors and an Australian, who were hurt when a large wave hit their yacht in the Pacific Ocean during the Clipper Round-the-World race.

Attempts to help the crew have been hampered by bad weather.
