Sailing vessel disabled off Cape Hatteras
The US Coast Guard assisted the two crew members aboard the disabled 'Big Adenvture' on Nov 15, 2022, approximately 218 miles east of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. Watchstanders with Coast Guard Sector North Carolina received notification on Nov 14 at approximately 8 a.m. from a good Samaritan that the sailing vessel, which was participating in the Salty Dawg Caribbean Rally from Hampton, Virginia to Antigua, had struck an object causing a rudder failure. The shoreside coordinator of the rally was able to establish communications with the vessel via email. The District Five command center directed the Coast Guard Cutter 'Lawrence Lawson' to the scene where they embarked the two mariners and towed the vessel to Chesapeake Bay where it was transferred to a commercial tug.
