The Cayman Islands Coast Guard was called into action on Sunday evening to come to the aid of a boat that had encountered engine trouble and was adrift in the North Sound.
The Coast Guard received a 911 report around 6:20pm that there was a vessel in distress near Duck Pond Cay.
According to a statement issued on Monday, “CICG Officers contacted the occupant of the vessel who stated that shortly after they launched their vessel at the Rackley ramp they had begun encountering engine issues and were adrift.”
The Coast Guard crew located the 20-foot boat by the canal entrance at Patricks Island.
“The captain and passenger aboard the vessel appeared to be in good health,” the statement noted, adding that the boat was towed to safety, back to the Rackley launch ramp.
