At 1.00am on Sunday, Captain Le Van Tan’s fishing boat QNg 97299TS from Quang Ngai Province suffered engine failure whilst fishing about 70 nautical miles northeast off the Quang Tri coast in strong level 8 winds and rough seas.

After receiving an SOS message from the boat, the Da Nang Coastal Information Station immediately informed the regional and local search and rescue teams and urged them to ask fishing vessels and other ships operating nearby to help the boat in distress. 

On Monday evening, rescue ship CSB-9002 of the Coast Guard Region II Command was sent out to help and towed the boat back to Quang Nam Province’s Ky Ha Port.
