ALTHOUGH strong winds kept most boaties at home, Central Queensland Coast Guards were hard at work last week.
Below is a diary of their significant tasks.
Monday
On Monday, an empty aluminium boat floating off Keppel Sands was the trigger for a search for a possible missing occupant.
At 3.58pm Keppel Sands Coast Guard was contacted by Yeppoon Coast Guard, advising that a member of the public had reported a vessel drifting fast in the strong winds.
The vessel appeared to have come from Cooroman Creek and was drifting across the front of Keppel Sands. There was no sign of an occupant.
