Yacht aground sparks Coastguard alarm in River Parrett estuary
 Coastguards
were alerted after this yacht went aground on mudflats at the
entrance to the River Brue estuary in Burnham-On-Sea on Sunday
afternoon (August 3rd).
The
yacht, pictured here, was spotted high and dry at the junction
of the Rivers Brue and Parrett, by a seafront walker who contacted
Swansea Coastguards at 4.25pm.
But
the yacht was later understood to have not been in difficulty
and had been waiting for the incoming tide before continuing its
trip upstream.
