Marine Rescue Cockburn

AVAIL V getting a sq**rt after assisting a vessel taking water tonight.

A vessel that logged on with us only an hour previously called in distress as water had flooded their engine bay. The source is yet to be confirmed but it appears a split hose may be the culprit. Plastic bags in the bilge initially prevented the water from being pumped out.

We were joined by Western Australia Police Force vessel TW152.

The crew onboard were extremely relieved to be back home safely.

MRC standing by.
