Drifted in open boat rescued after shark sighting
Albert Gordon Kearle, 24, of Geraldton, nearly died after his motor failed while crayfishing near Wallaby Island in the Abrolhos group. He drifted for hours in an open launch, survived with improvised fuel, was sighted by the Pelsart and rescued by Pelbart and other vessels after a perilous ordeal marked by exhaustion, thirst, and a shark encounter.
Pelsart Crew Pursues Replacement Engine Parts
Today Mr Kearle worked to secure new engine parts to resume fishing after the Pelsart rescue. He expected to obtain the jorts from Werth as Geraldton supplies were scarce. He plans to return to West Wallaby Island tomorrow morning. Mr Kearns's wife, in Geraldton, learned his two and a quarter year old daughter had a bicycle accident needing two stitches. His other daughter, fifteen months old, recently returned from medical treatment in a metropolitan hospital after prior care at the Victoria District Hospital plus stay in another hospital care period.
