The National Sea Rescue
Institute Jeffreys bay duty crew were activated following a request for
assistance from the Gamtoos Ferry hotel, reporting that a family on a cabin boat
was experiencing motor failure upstream on the Gamtroos river.
NSRI’s Craig Lambinon reported
that the family while reportedly safe, but with motor failure to the cabin boat, the main
concern was that they had a 6-month old baby on board.
“Without hesitation we towed our sea
rescue craft Project Group Rescuer and launched onto the Gamtoos River and
found the family, who are from Jeffery’s bay, which is 5km upstream.” Lambinon said.
The family was taken the Gamtoos
ferry lodge and no further assistance was required.
