AN investigation is continuing into how a North West man died after falling overboard from a yacht.

Robert Joseph Downey, aged 55 from Liverpool, was rescued from rough seas off the Pembrokeshire coast on Friday but died before he could be treated.

Mr Downey was one of five men on board the 80ft Silvery Light which was on its way from Penzance to Edinburgh to a maritime museum.

Haverford West Police are now probing how Mr Downey fell overboard.
