These pictures show a sunken £6m superyacht that was destroyed by fire being hauled from the water. The 85ft yacht 'Rendezvous' was carrying 8,000 litres of fuel when it caught fire and ended up submerged at the bottom of Torquay Harbour.
The massive blaze broke out on Saturday, May 28 with smoke seen billowing across the blue skies above the heads of sunbathers in the seaside town in Devon. Since the incident, Torbay Harbour Authority have been working with a specialist wreck removal company.
Divers were in the water on Monday to make the final preparations for the salvage operation. For the last couple of days workers have been studying the harbour awaiting the recovery.
