A salvage operation is under way to stop a boat from sinking and leaking fuel after eight people were rescued off the coast of Torbay.
A tug, carrying 200 tonnes of diesel, was damaged by a vessel it was towing as it tried to anchor last night.
A salvage crew from the Royal Navy is onboard trying to keep the 'Christos 22' afloat, with assistance from the Exmouth Lifeboat and Brixham Coastguard.
