I've just been informed of the following. It bugs me to see us lose a C42, but, at least, it was not an issue with the boat. Lets all wish John & his
crew better luck in any future passages.
"It is regret that we have to inform you that our catalina 42, Coolabah hit a submerged object 300 miles out of Suva, Fiji and sunk. All four crew on board were rescued by a nearby vessel and we are all safe now in savu Savu, Fiji.
Many thanks to the support that the owners website has offered us over the last year.
Best regards
