#breakingnews #ocean #rescue #australia #helicopter
Extraordinary aerial footage captures the dramatic moment a Royal Australian Navy MH-60R Seahawk helicopter rescued a solo Canadian yachtsman drifting in a life raft 1,000 kilometres off the coast of Western Australia. After the sailor’s catamaran began taking on water and sinking in severe Indian Ocean conditions southeast of Christmas Island, search and rescue authorities dropped emergency food, water, and an inflatable life raft. Navy personnel aboard a guided-missile frigate dispatched the Seahawk helicopter, successfully hoisting the exhausted mariner aboard in a high-stakes, open-ocean airlift.
