Yacht towed to deeper water

The volunteers on radio duty at the Point Clare Marine Rescue Central Coast Base on Wednesday, December 12, were called to assist the skipper of a 9.4 metre yacht at Wagstaffe.

The boat, which had three people on board, was stranded adjacent to the public wharf at Wagstaffe.

The on-call boat crew, Norm Smith and Peter Ashworth, was contacted and soon had the rescue Vessel, Central Coast 20, heading south to assist.

The yacht was towed to deeper water enabling it to proceed on its course to Broken Bay.
