This one is a big one. The case of the M/V Selendang Ayu is one of the most well known SAR cases in recent CG history. We have CAPT Tim Eason (ret.) join us to recount the story from the perspective of the MH-65 on scene.
What a way to bring together our 80th episode on our 2-year anniversary! Thank you all for listening!
P.S. Sam is in Edinbergh Scotland, and recently survived a scary 3-day bout of the "man-flu".
