Tall ship demasted

October 29, 2010 Paul Hancock

The tall ship Fryderyk Chopin lost both its masts off the southwest coast of the Isles of Scilly. The Polish vessel was damaged by a strong gust of wind. The damage was severe enough that it needed to be towed into Falmouth Bay by a tug. No reports of injuries.
