Two men, Douglas Wood, 58, from Sandwich Bay, Kent, and David Coxon, 52, from Jarrow, Tyneside, were arrested on suspicion of drug-trafficking offences. The drugs were estimated to be worth UKP5 million (approx US$9 million)
The multi-agency operation, which included the Royal Navy and the Serious Organised Crime Agency, was hailed as a "major blow" to organised crime in London.
The yacht was then taken to secure docks in Plymouth where it will be subject to forensic examination. The men will appear at Greenwich Magistrates' Court tomorrow (Monday).
