U.S. Coast Guard rescues motor yacht crew 200 nautical miles west of Republic of Palau
A crewman aboard USCGC Oliver Henry (WPC 1140) tosses a heaving line to set up a tow to the crew of the 150-foot 497-ton motor yacht Black Pearl 1, located approximately 200 nautical miles west of the Republic of Palau on July 21, 2024, after responding to a distress call. The 11-person yacht crew, who reported a locked rudder and flooding in the bilge, was assisted by Oliver Henry's crew with dewatering and damage control as they headed toward Palau in 25 mph winds and 4 to 6-foot seas.
