THE skipper of a racing yacht has described the moment a rogue wave tore off its mast and left the crew stranded in the Atlantic Ocean for nearly two days. The 60ft Clyde Challenger yacht was battered in stormy conditions as it was returning to the UK from a four-and-a-half month trip and had to be rescued by a Hampshire-based Royal Navy warship, HMS Dragon. Its crew of 13 Britons and one American waited 20 hours for HMS Dragon to reach them as the Type 45 destroyer was diverted 500 miles from a routine deployment. Roy Graham, the Challenger s skipper, said the problems began five days after leaving the Azores, in the mid-Atlantic, when a large wave threw the yacht into chaos on Thursday evening.
