    Two men have been rescued after fire broke out on their fishing boat which later sank off Skye.

    Smoke was seen coming from the 12m-long Sarah Lena as she was going into harbour at Uig just before 1700 BST.

    The men, who were uninjured, were taken off the vessel by a local boat as the Portree Lifeboat stood by.

    The Sarah Lena sank at about 2045 BST. Stornoway Coastguard, who co-ordinated the rescue, said the cause of the fire was not known.
