Coast Guard high and dry on Elizabeth Island, WP

Hi all,

I just saw on 9news that the coast guard ran aground on Elizabeth Island, Western Port, at approx 2am last night. By that, I mean the cat must have nearly got air, cos at high tide it would still have been high and dry. Apparently their gps played up....hmm.

Looking how far the boat is above the water mark he must have been going at some speed

I still dont get it. Surely the captain of a coast gaurd boat would be carefull and have experience of the area. Spot on nude up he must have been flying to get that far up.
