There was much relief as Vincent Riou made contact with the missing skipper Jean Le Cam (pictured) this afternoon. Read previous story here.
At 14:21 GMT Vincent Riou (PRB) arrived at the scene of VM Matériaux's capsize. He reported that he found the yacht floating upside down, missing its keel bulb, but a small 'flag' was visible at one of the through-hull fittings on the bow of the upturned yacht. The stern of VM Matériaux, where there is an emergency escape hatch, is underwater.
Riou shouted for Le Cam and heard a response from the French skipper inside the capsized boat.
A Chilean naval tug has also been sent to aid the rescue effort. The tug left Puerto Williams at 12:30 GMT and is due to reach the area tomorrow morning at 06:30. The tug is equipped with a RIB and divers to assist in recovering the skipper.
