Broken down runabout discovered while searching for another
- Coastguard Mana
- Operation Details Date/Time: Sun, 07/11/2021 - 18:30 - 21:30 Operation Type: CG Operation (good samaritan) People Assisted: 6 Total Volunteer Hours: 12 Whilst searching for a vessel that had broken down with 4 pob and requested a tow home as a non-member we discovered another one that had broken down on "the bridge" near Mana Island. We marked their location and told them we would be back for them once we had located the first vessel. We found the first vessel under tow by someone else coming back into the channel. After confirming that it was them and that they no longer required our assistance (a non-member tow that would have cost them money) we returned to the second vessel.
