Un tripulante de un velero inglés aguanta 6 horas en el mar tras caer al agua frente a las Cíes


'Uno de los dos tripulantes de un yate británico de 8,5 metros de eslora que hacía la travesía entre Leixoes y Cardiff cayó al agua a causa de una golpe de mar y se mantuvo a flote durante seis horas hasta que pudo ser rescatado por los servicios de salvamento.
Roger John Cottle fue trasladado al centro de salud de Cangas, donde fue atendido por los médicos. Mientras, la embarcación fue remolcada también a Cangas con su compañero, Paul Charmbury, de 40 años, a bordo. A última hora de la mañana de ayer ambos daban gracias a los servicios de salvamento por su "profesionalidad" y no dudaban en calificar su supervivencia de "suerte".'

Suerte que pudieron rescatarlo y que aguantara esas seis horas.

Ultimamente las noticias relativas a MOB's acababan mal. La nueva Taberna ha traido también buenas noticias.

BRITISH YACHTSMAN RESCUED BY SPANISH FISHERMAN

A British man has been found by a Spanish fishing vessel, having fallen overboard his yacht 15 miles off the coast of Spain.

Falmouth Coastguard received a hit from a 406 distress beacon at midnight, which put the vessel somewhere off the Portuguese coast. A further hit from the beacon put the vessel off Vigo in Spain.

At 2.00 am it was established that a man had fallen overboard the yacht Rash. The yacht had two people on board. A rescue helicopter and rescue boat were sent to the area by the Madrid Coastguard. At 3.30 am the missing man, who is from Bristol, was recovered from the water by a fishing vessel. He is safe and well. Both crew of the yacht are now on board the fishing vessel which is bringing them back into Vigo. The yacht is being towed back into port.

Falmouth Coastguard, has been liaising with the Madrid Coastguard since the initiation of the incident, giving details of the yacht which are stored here in the UK and assisting the Spanish Coastguard.

Mick Quinn, Falmouth Coastguard Watch Manager says:
Falmouth Coastguard has been designated as the UK Coastguard co-ordination centre which liaises with our international colleagues in cases such as these. We were able to give information regarding the vessel to which the beacon is registered.

It seems that the man who fell into the water is safe and well, despite having been in the water for a considerable amount of time. The weather in the area was not great at the time of the rescue, with force 5-7 winds, occasionally gale force 8 and thundery showers.

POOR WEATHER IN BAY OF BISCAY PRODUCES CALLS TO FALMOUTH COASTGUARD

Falmouth Coastguard have been co-ordinating assistance to three separate incidents off the coast of Spain in the Bay of Biscay this afternoon.

Initially, at 11.45 this morning a signal was received from a 406 MHz beacon which related to a 28 foot white hulled yacht called ` Sentito registered to a resident of Hartlepool. Various calls were made, and it was established that a British couple were on board who had last made contact with their relatives in the town on Monday, when they said they were departing from a French port.

The Spanish Coastguard were contacted and the Spanish Co-ordination Centre at Madrid launched a helicopter and rescue boat to the site of the beacon.

Coastguards in Madrid then confirmed that Finisterre radio had made contact with the crew of the `Sentito who reported that they were in distress; dismasted and were wishing to abandon their vessel. They were reassured that a helicopter was en route and by 1.00 p.m. this afternoon both individuals had been picked up by the aircraft and were on their way to safety in Spain.

Falmouth Coastguard then relayed that message back to relieved family members in Hartlepool.

Meanwhile at 12.20 this afternoon a VHF radio mayday was heard from the 9.3m steel hulled single-hull yacht `Malidan which was in difficulty in very heavy weather, also in the Bay of Biscay and required urgent assistance.

Several vessels including a car carrier also heard his alert and reported to the Coastguard they were heading in the yachts direction. The Coastguard in Madrid were also aware of the ongoing incident and offered a helicopter to the site of the mayday distress signal, however the vessel `MSC Napoli reported that she was very close to the site of the distressed yacht and said that her crew could recover the two people from the yacht who by this time had abandoned to a liferaft. Minor first aid was required when they were recovered but both were in fine spirits but were more concerned for their yacht they had had to abandon.

At 2.15 p.m. a further distress call was received from yet another yacht who was involved in the `Route Du Rhum race. The call was patched through to Falmouth Coastguard from the French Coastguard at Cap Griz Nez who in turn had been informed about the incident from the race organisers.

The vessel A Fond Contre La Spondylarthrite with one occupant was about to set off his 406 MHz beacon as the vessel was taking water and in danger of sinking.

The French Coastguard then launched an aircraft – a Falcon 50 – from the French Navy to overfly the scene.

By 2.45 it was established that the nearest vessel to the distressed yacht was the `Siegenna which was approximately 50 miles north of the yacht, although to reach the A Fond Contre La Spondylarthrite he would have to sail against the wind. It was confirmed by this time that the yacht was sinking and the single male occupant was in a dry suit and preparing to abandon the vessel.

The incident is ongoing.
