[MilCom] Fwd: Re: [ScanMarine] More on SAR off Florida Coast

[AllanStern at aol.com]

USCG Helo "CG Rescue 6022" has located the sailing vessel; no  one is on 
it. CG Cutter 45617 is with Sailing Vessel Gaya now, and CG  Sector Jax 
advises them "Do not take the vessel in tow."  
   Sector Jax on 157.15 is using vessel "Rhone Express" to relay  comms to 
CGC 45617.  Asks if 45617 sees a small boat being towed by the  Sailing 
Vessel Gaya, and if there is a kayak on the front of the Gaya.
   Also heard Customs "Omaha 13" hailing CGC 45617 on  156.8.

   It sounds like it is his boat and he is the only one aboard.   
The CG pleaded with him. Said he wanted them to contact his  wife instead 
and have her come out and get him.  Implied it was because  of concern for 
the boat, so they said they would send a 45-ft vessel to  recover the boat.  I 
have not heard if anyone else is aboard the boat,  but the lack of 
mentioning that suggests he is alone.
