I just got a second call, 911[1] call for that boat on the beach in OB.
00:07
Sounds like it's washed up south of the pier on the reef there between the seawall and the pier.
00:15
It was also recorded by this individual that there are...
00:20
two inflatable style boats, one that is swamped and one that is partially functional and it was reported that there was a person on board, on board the operational vessel kind of trying to run some type of salvage thing, no signs of distress, but possibly kind of running a hairy operation down there.
00:47
A break for Lincoln to dispatch and 24 Sam. I'm on scene.
00:54
Not sure the credibility of the RP.
00:58
This road's broken up.
01:00
Sitting on the reef.
01:02
It's a match.
01:04
And I find it very hard to believe that any type of vessel could have been anywhere near here trying to tow it out with a surface that we have. But nobody's on scene. It's completely clear.
01:16
And 24 Sam, I sent you the pictures and the contacts for Jayhaw.
01:22
Dispatch copy is all.
01:25
24 Lingen unseen.
01:30
24 Sam, copy all.
01:33
And I'm in route to Obie.
01:39
Stand by.
01:49
24 Sam,
01:50
I don't know if the number that you have for the RO[2] is a cell, but remind him that he's responsible for getting this thing off the beach. There's going to be an environmental impact. It's got a pretty good size outboard motor and a fuel cell that is secured in the boat, but this vessel needs to be removed from the beach with flying established.
02:13
Copy that. We'll tend to make contact with the RO[2] and we'll also notify Jayhawk with the update.
02:25
Copy, check the tides.
02:27
You can access it by just giving me an ankle deep water right now.
02:35
Dispatch can you tend to make contact with the RO[2]?
