The National Sea Rescue Institute’s Simon’s Town duty crew were kept busy this weekend with multiple incidents recorded in False Bay waters, including eyewitness reports of a wave washing a child into the harbour at Kalk Bay harbour on Saturday.
Zimmerman added that the stroller, as well as some other belongings, were recovered from the water by a third Good Samaritan, who also works at the harbour, who had also jumped in to assist. This occurred while NSRI Simon’s Town duty crew was responding to an incident at Muizenberg, to assist NSRI station 16 Strandfontein, where a sea kayak had washed onto rocks at Muizenberg’s Bailey’s Cottage, and while the Simon’s Town duty was investigating reports of a Hobie-Cat suspected to be in difficulty, or capsized, off-shore of Glencairn.
