Coast Guard Called To Help Boats Off Holden Beach, Bird Island The U.S. Coast Guard station at Oak Island responded to four emer gency calls last week, including one boat that was reported to be taking on water off Holden Beach, according to station chief BMCS J.D. Amdt. Saturday afternoon at approxi mately 5 p.m., the station received a call from Holden Beach Water Rescue reporting a vessel in distress and taking on water about 1.5 miles offshore from the Holden Beach Fishing Pier. The station dispatched its 41 -foot patrol boat to assist Holden Beach Water Rescue, which was already en route and arrived at the scene first. It reported that two people had been removed from the vessel. A private boat also responded to the emergency call and took the stricken boat in tow to Holden Beach Marina. All boats and passen gers were reported safe, Amdt said. Sunday afternoon at about 4 p.m., the station was notified that a boat was on fire in the vicinity of Bird Island. The 41 -foot boat was dis patched to assist. While en route, the station re ceived information that a diver had suffered a ncck injury in ihe Bird Island area. A private boat offered iLs assistance and transported the pa tient to an ambulance in Calabash. The 41 -footer continued its search for the burning boat, but upon ar rival found no such emergency in the area, Amdt reported. At about 3 p.m. Saturday a U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary patrol boat reported a disabled vessel near USCG channel marker number 1. Although the call would normally have been considered a non-emcr gency, because the vessel was not equipped with a radio, the auxiliary boat was authorized to tow it to a wildlife ramp, Amdt said. Thursday afternoon (July 15) at 2 p.m. the station was called from a man reporting that his friend was overdue from a trip in the Holdcn Beach area. The station launched its 21 -foot fast-response inflatable to search the Intracoastal Waterway from Holden Beach to Sunset Beach. About an hour later, the original caller contacted the station to report that the vessel had returned safely, Amdt said.
