Far Statesman rescued three lost boaters
On Jan 26, 2018, the "Far Statesman" rescued a trio which was returning from a Raft Up Party on Rottnest Island after they were thrown from the back of their 6.4m inflatable vessel just after 8 p.m. The boat's skipper noticed minutes later, but by then the group had been lost, prompting a frantic search involving water police and Fremantle Sea rescue. The oilrig support vessel eventually found the trio – almost three hours later. By this point the three had drifted almost two kilometres from where they had been thought to have fallen in. The crew heard shouts in the water off the bow, about 200 metres away and picked up the three people they could see in the searchlights. They were brought aboard a police rescue boat shortly after and taken to hospital, where they were kept overnight while being treated for exhaustion.
