Oban lifeboat launched to assist dive boat Sunday 3rd Oct

Post by Nick »

.Oban lifeboat, the Mora Edith Macdonald, launched at 11.45am today, Sunday 3rd October 2010.

She was off to the assistance of a dive-boat with 6 or 7 divers aboard, which had suffered engine failure near Bach Island off the South West corner of the island of Kerrera.

The lifeboat took the drifting boat in tow, took her home to Puffin Dive in the Sound of Kerrera, returned to Oban, refuelled and was ready for service again by 12.50 pm.

I must have a look and see if it is possible to hide particular sub-forums from particular individuals.

I didn't realise there was a Subs forum - this is ridiculous. There was only one issue about a sub running aground and you start a forum up about it.
I am also offended that there isn't therefore a Cuan forum......
