TUGUEGARAO CITY -- The Philippine Coast Guard has recovered its aluminum boat, which was dispatched to assist a tugboat that got stranded in Cagayan during the onslaught of Super Typhoon Egay.
The PCG’s District North Eastern Luzon reported that it found the AB 056, but the boat’s four coast guard personnel were missing.
The AB 065 was spotted by rescue personnel of the PCG, who were on board motor vessel Eagle Ferry, on Fuga Island in Aparri.
The boat was earlier seen drifting away from Calayan Island.
The PCG has dispatched teams to search for and rescue its four personnel, who were reportedly last seen clinging to the AB 065 before they were swept away by the current.
The AB 065 was dispatched on July 26 to assist the motor tugboat Iroquois and its seven crewmembers.
The Iroquois has been found, with all its crewmembers in good condition.
