Sea Rescue Call Out
Submitted by carnarvonite on Sun, 2018-09-02 22:28
Got a call out for sea rescue today, boat overheating and broken down at Darwin reef, wasn't too bad when we started off but wind came up to make it a real prick of a trip. Left at 3 and didn't get off the rescue boat till 10.
800 litres of fuel used to tow a former rescue boat off one of the oil rigs so not a cheap exercise, to make it worse for them, they didn't catch a fish
