The two people rescued from a yacht off Sydney’s coast say they are very glad to be back on dry land and were treated to a meat pie and cup of coffee after spending 19 hours clinging to their stricken yacht.

But one of the pair – 48-year-old Lisa – says she will be back out on the ocean as soon as Thursday.
