Clipper yacht
The Jersey yacht is currently languishing in 10th position
An injured member of the round-the-world Jersey Clipper race crew has rejoined the yacht.

Jersey solicitor Mark Wain received treatment in Cape Town when the Clipper stopped off for repairs.

He had injured his ribs after a fall during the section of the race from Brazil to Durban.

Skipper Mark Taylor is now hoping to make up time on the Jersey Clipper, which is currently lying in last place in the race.

The yachts are competing across 35,000 miles of sea, visiting 12 ports, before returning to Liverpool next July.
