Troubled trawler fixed at sea
PANO – The Center for Logistics and Technical Services in Truong Sa township under Naval Fleet 129 of the Saigon Military Port of the Vietnam People's Navy successfully fixed a problem of trawler BTh-97912TS on April 5.
Earlier, the boat, captained by Nguyen Van Muoi from Phu Quy district, Binh Thuan province, was about to go adrift to foreign blue waters due to a broken propeller while fishing near Da Lat Island of Vietnam’s Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago.
Immediately, Muoi asked another fishing boat nearby to tow the troubled trawler to Da Lat Island and contacted the Center for Logistics and Technical Services in Truong Sa township for help.
The center assigned technical personnel to fixing the trawler’s problem and then the boat continued offshore fishing.
