Indian naval ship rescues fishing boat in Arabian sea

MUMBAI: The Indian Navy carried out a successful search and rescue operation (SAR) saving all the nine crew of a fishing trawler Kadal Matha in the high seas 240 nautical miles north-west of Goa.

It acted on a distress message sent by the trawler at 1100 hours on 25 February, and relayed by the Coast Guard Regional Head Quarters (West).

The Western Naval Command at Mumbai directed its unit, Indian Naval Ship Nashak, operating near the area to locate and render assistance.

Accordingly, INS Nashak, a guided missile vessel commanded by lieutenant commander Nitin Kapoor of the 22nd Missile Vessel Squadron, located the trawler within two hours of receiving the distress message.

The trawler with nine fishermen onboard had sustained machinery breakdown and was in danger of sinking due to ingress of sea water through a major leak onboard.

The warship salvaged the trawler by stemming the leak and took it under tow.

It was later handed over to the Indian Coast Guard Vessel Samrat who towed the trawler to safety to Goa (while the missile vessel returned to its operational mission).
