Distressed yacht towed to Galle
Sri Lanka Navy's Advanced Offshore Patrol Vessel SLNS "Sayurala" assisted the "Sandetie" which had suffered engine failure 72 miles off Galle Light House on April 14, 2018. The distressed yacht sent a mayday call, and the Sri Lanka Navy promptly dispatched the patrol boat for the rescue of the yacht. The ship with its crew was towed to Galle harbour and subsequently handed over to a private shipping company for onward action.
