Turning a Surplus into a Bail-out?

Quote:
A health trust in East Yorkshire is facing criticism over plans to spend £400,000 on a yacht for unemployed youngsters.

Hull Primary Care Trust (PCT) will buy the 72ft (22m) boat if funding is secured to set up a new organisation called the Wilberforce Sailing Academy.

The project's aim is to give unemployed 17 to 19-year-olds a healthier lifestyle and something to do.
