GRAFTON, Australia (23 Dec 2006) -- Two scuba divers have been found after drifting at sea for four hours off the north coast of New South Wales. The divers went missing off Brooms Head after the anchor line on their boat snapped and it drifted away from the area where they were diving. Three police boats and two rescue helicopters were deployed to search for the missing divers who were found at about 5:30pm by a merchant ship. Meanwhile, five people aboard the drifting boat were forced to swim ashore when the vessel capsized in near-shore surf. Coastguard officials reported that both scuba divers and all five boat passengers were in good condition. © CDNN - CYBER DIVER NEWS NETWORK |
