It was a busy day on the water today for Red Sunday Crew at VMR Bribie. First a Bribie 1 assist to an 8m cruiser with engine problems, towed back to Scarborough. Then off to another 8m cruiser with engine troubles at Bulwer, taken back to Pacific Harbour. While this was happening, Bribie 2 was dispatched to Tangalooma to bring a 5.5m boat back to Spinnaker, and to top it off a tinny towed back from Spinnaker to the base. Big day and everyone happy to be back safely.
