Five saved from yacht
Five Swedish crew members of a yacht that capsized in wild seas off Australia's east coast were rescued yesterday after a 13-hour ordeal. The yacht,Savcor, capsized on Tuesday evening in a six metre swell off southern New South Wales while returning to mainland Australia after competing in the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. A freighter shielded the capsized yacht from waves and wind overnight until rescuers arrived, new agency AAP reported.
