British tourist describes Kos island boat crash

At least 25 people were hurt when a catamaran carrying tourists crashed into a jetty on the Greek island of Kos, say reports.

Most of the tourists on board the Turkish-flagged Aegean Cat were British - five were seriously injured.

The catamaran was travelling to Kos from the Turkish town of Didim, with more than 200 passengers on board.

Officials said it might have suffered a mechanical failure before crashing into the jetty twice, damaging its hull.

Allen Taylor describes how he was injured.
