AMVER ship assisting disabled sailing vessel
The "Hyundai Grace" joined an SAR operaqtion of the ÄUS Coast Guard in the evening of Oct 26, 2014, following a report of the 32-ft-sailing vessel "Hale's Revenge" being disabled and adrift about 780 miles west of the Oregon California border. The operator of the "Hale’s Revenge" reported that there were no injuries to anyone aboard, but they were disabled and adrift after sustaining damage to the vessel. Watchstanders at the Coast Guard 13th District command center received a 406 megahertz personal locator beacon alert at about 6:50 p.m. from the vessel, during its voyage from Honolulu to Everett, Washington. An Air Station Sacramento, California-based aircrew, aboard an HC-130 Hercules airplane was scheduled to arrive at the vessel’s location at about 1 a.m. The crew of the "Hyundai Grace" also offered to provide assistance and was scheduled to arrive at the vessel’s location at about 5 a.m. Coast Guard SAR coordinators are continuing to monitor the condition of the vessel and those aboard. Weather conditions were reported to be 12-15 foot seas with 35-mph winds.
