Bulkcarrier saved couple from yacht
The crew of the "IVS Phinda" rescued two Australian sailors on July 23, 2018, 370 kilometers north of Darwin, who were sailing from Indonesia to Australia on their yacht "Jepeda IV". After they lost their mast in rough weather, they were unable to navigate safely, and the couple activated their distress beacon late in the night of July 22. The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) tasked its Challenger search and rescue jet from Cairns to locate the yacht. AMSA also issued a broadcast to shipping in the area requesting assistance. The "IVS Phinda "responded to AMSA’s broadcast and diverted to the stricken yacht’s location overnight and rescued the sailors with the first light.
