Immersion Suit Mystery Continues

During Saturday night CoCT (City of Cape Town) Law Enforcement Marine Unit officers located another 2 survival immersion suits that were recovered on Sunday morning, 19 January, by NSRI Strandfontein – 1 close to False Bay Surf Lifesaving Club, and one at Sonwabe Beach.

Now a total of 7 survival immersion suits that we are aware of that have been located in False Bay over the past 24 hours.

It is odd for this type of survival equipment to be found adrift or coming ashore and the mystery as to their origin deepens.

NSRI, in cooperation with Law Enforcement and Police, are continuing to monitor this matter but, at this stage, we remain cautiously optimistic that they are not related to any persons or any vessel in any distress or any kind of trouble.

We are appealing to the maritime community and the public to report any further findings of these survival immersion suits – to call NSRI EOC – 0870949774.
