2022-07-19 CG Mba Blue crew's night training session, using Rotary III. 2 Assists for Herb Adams,
Channel: Coast Guard Mooloolaba QF6
Date: 2022-07-22

Blue Sunday crew have a 10.3m yacht assist on Tuesday night. Great preparation for Herb Adams, whose skipper's assessment is coming up soon. Not satisfied with the one night time assist we then do another tow and raft exercise in pitch darkness to cover all the bases.

Herb needed this, as part of the prerequisites for him to undertake the Commander's Operational Coxswain Assessment.
On arriving at QF6 at 1700 the crew were told that a 10.3 metre yacht with 2 People on Board and with engine cooling problems was anchored off Alexandra Headland and needed assistance to get back to their pontoon in the Kawana Canal.
So it was fortunate that the crew was there for training and so were able to quickly respond at sunset and get the yacht safely back to its pontoon just after dark.
Then they were off again to assist Rotary III to finish off a very successful night for Herb and the crew."
