Cutter William Hart Aids Mariner and Two Dogs on Wind Rush Off Oahu
Coast Guard Cutter William Hart assisted one mariner and two dogs aboard the disabled 32-foot sailboat Wind Rush north of Oahu on Monday, May 9, 2022. Coast Guard Sector Honolulu watchstanders received the report at 6:14 a.m. The sailboat was 5 miles off Kaena Point with fouled sails and rigging, and an inoperable motor. The mariner reported being adrift for 12 hours, managing the drift but unable to maneuver. He was out of food and water, had a hand injury, and could not work the rigging. Sector Honolulu issued a Marine Assistance Request Broadcast and launched the William Hart. The cutter crew took the Wind Rush in tow and brought it 10 miles back to Waianae Boat Harbor. The mariner was reported in good condition.  ·
