Wallem ship saves six fishermen
On Saturday 9th June 2018, the Captain and crewmembers of the Wallem-managed vessel the 'KSL Seoul' rescued six fishermen after their boat was involved in an accident and it was capsized. The 'KSL Seoul' was sailing through the Mindoro Strait heading to Port Walcott in West Australia when they spotted the capsized fishing boat, the 'Sister Reds' with six Filipino fishermen hanging from its hull. The KSL Seoul notified the Philippine coastguard and the local Maritime Rescue Coordinating Council (MRCC) and diverted to approach the boat. The six fishermen were rescued and pulled safely onboard the 'KSL Seoul' using life rings and cargo nets. All rescued were in good condition. One fisherman suffered from minor cuts and was treated in the ship’s hospital. After the rescue, the KSL Seoul headed to the meeting point with the Philippines Coast Guard ten nautical miles north of Cabra Island. The next morning, all six fishermen were safely transferred to the Coastguard vessel, the 'Cape San Agustin,' and the 'KSL Seoul' continued its voyage to Australia.
