Rig Support Vessel In Trouble

Found this on the BBC News News Website.

Sort of thing you'd have a Nimrod over the top to coordinate rescue efforts, provide SAR cover to said rescue efforts, and act as Re-bro......

By all accounts the swell is 9m so individuals will have to be lifted off one-by-one.

Wonder if those at the top will be regretting binning Nimord MR2 and MRA4, more so if this develops into a tragedy.
