Marine Rescue

At about 1400hrs today, Police Interceptor Sir John Chapple responded to a call received at Police Command & Dispatch regarding a sailing boat with 2 occupants having capsized in the inner harbour area close to West View Park.

On arrival in the area, the RGP crew were able to deploy a line and secure the capsized vessel from drifting towards the revetment, following which the 2 occupants assisted by the Police crew were able to turn the vessel and convey it back to its mooring.

The occupants did not sustain any injuries and did not require any medical assistance. The Gibraltar Port Authority launch was also in attendance.
