SOUTH COAST: Border Force officers boarded the yacht, before escorting it into Dover marina.
The yacht was searched by the force’s deep rummage team, which found 1,200 kilos of cocaine.
Two Dutch nationals, who were on board the yacht, have been charged with drug trafficking offences.
Elaine Game, from the National Crime Agency’s Dover border investigation team, said: “This was an exceptional seizure.
