Fathers’ Day rescue

By September 3, 2017Activities

On Fathers’ day 2017, a family group fishing off Barwon Heads struck the reef near the wreck of the Orungal (The Boilers) and damaged their propeller. Unable to make headway, they were caught in deteriorating conditions and drifting out to sea when we arrived and rescued them. They were very relieved and grateful to be towed back to the safety of the boat ramp in the Barwon River.
