Yacht carrying 18 sinks off Greek island; all rescued

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s coast guard says all 18 people on board a British-flagged yacht that sank off the Greek island of Milos have been rescued . The passengers and crew of the 30-meter yacht, all Greeks, were picked up from the sea by a passenger boat, a nearby cargo ship and a launch, and were transported to the main port on Milos. Health authorities said a 58-year-old man was transported to the Milos health center with a head laceration, while the remaining 17 were also taken to the health center for checks. It wasn’t immediately clear why the yacht sank.
