A couple of guys in an 8m yacht sent out a distress call after thier rudder broke in the Channel, a nearby ship answered the call and turned up to tow them to France.
The crew were a little surprised to be rescued by an 18th century East Indiaman![hehe](/inc/images/hehe.gif)

I had a look around Gotheborg when she visited nearby a few months back, beautiful ship. Based on an 18th century wreck but with a few modern touches like radar and an engine to make it safe for modern use, plus it has one fewer deck inside to get some more headroom.
