78 year old deck hand survived fall into water
A 78-year-old deck hand fell from the 'Smaragd 1' in the evening of June 9, 2022 in the water of the river de Lek near Nieuw-Lekkerland, when he was busy mooring the party boat. The captain was quickly warned, thus preventing the man from becoming trapped. In the meantime, the emergency service was called and a life buoy was thrown into the water. Not much later, the Nieuw-Lekkerland fire brigade arrived. The firefighters managed to get the man to the shore and later handed him over to the ambulance service. The sailor was taken to hospital for a check-up, but has since returned home.
