Dramatic ocean rescue saves boaties and dog
Published 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Description
Two boaties and a dog were rescued from the ocean off the North Queensland coast after their fishing vessel sank more than 130 kilometres from Airlie Beach. They activated an emergency beacon and were spotted on a life raft by a Challenger rescue jet around midnight. The crew of a passing cargo ship from Hong Kong pulled them aboard before a helicopter transported them back to dry land in the early morning.
