1400hour LT Cameroon - Limbe, Milaha Explorer vessel requested assistance to get out of the jetty of CNIC LIMBE. Two vessels namely Alpha Hawk and RT MARGO assisted this event.
The process was simple in theory but complex in practice. Nevertheless, Milaha Explorer was removed successfully and towed its way out of the key. This exploit was performed by Cameroonian Seafarer who gave it their all in achieving this task with efficiency and effectiveness. Towing the ship was through the difficult part.
M.V Alpha Hark and RT Margo had to pull the vessel at its port and starboard respectively. If not the vessel might have rolled horizontally into the Sea.
RT MARGO had to lash their rope for a few meters to reduce the tension in the rope; this safety measure is not taken by most towing vessels at sea and thus, we find cases like the vessels back lass destroying a part of the vessel or in the worst scenario ending someone's life. You can see from the picture or videos seafarers in operation wearing their life-jacket; prevention is better than cure (safety first) you can complain later.

Towing operation are my specialty. My crew and I do it at the port of Congo, 3 to 4 times a months. But due to this covid-19, activities have gotten slower. Contract still come out but take a long time to be proceed. However,If you have such experience as (Nouvelle recrue) you will have the opportunity to grow at good rate.
