Container ship spotted adrift boat with two occupants

On May 27, 2021, the 'Ensemble', while enroute from Cadiz to Dublin, participated in the rescue of two people aboard a 2-meter boat of the La Caleta Nautical Club two nautical miles of the Castillo de San Sebastián. Eastern winds had blown them away from the coast. The container ship spotted the boat and was first on scene, followed by the Helimer 201 helicopter and the SAR boat 'Salvamar Suhail' from the Salvamento Marítimo station in Cadiz at 7.23 a.m., which took them aboard and landed them in good condition in the Puerto América. They only had mild hypothermia and did not require medical assistance. Photo: https://twitter.com/salvamentogob/status/1397881940523507712
