Capsized boat - Swartkops

At 08:18 the CWR squad was activated after a report from BWB Life Saving Club that a small boat has flipped in the mouth and that there were 3 people in the water. All patients made it safely to shore where they were attended to by paramedics. Two patients had to be ferried back to Brighten Beach from the northern side of the river mouth. One patient was transferred to hospital by EMS with injuries. The boat was retrieved by CWR and BWCLSC.

Well done to BWBLSC, EMS, Fire and NSRI for the quick response.
