Mayday call from broken down vessel
- Coastguard Mana
- Operation Details Date/Time: Wed, 20/05/2020 - 13:15 - 15:30 Operation Type: SAROP Cat 1 People Assisted: 2 Total Volunteer Hours: 9 A vessel broke down up towards Pukerua Bay. It was towed back towards Mana but then dropped out in the bay off Plimmerton and told to get someone else to take them in, or they'd pick them up again on the way back from fishing. The vessel appeared to be taking on water so the skipper placed a Mayday call, which Maritime Radio responded to. Police then tasked us to respond to tow them in.
