We proudly advised that M/V Nazenin during her passage towards Recife port Brazil, received instructions from MRCC NATAL for a search and rescue operation in the vicinity of vessel’s position.
MRCC Natal has received information of a beacon active EPIRB from the vessel THAIS IV in position 06°24.3'S / 033°55.5'W and immediately advise our vessel to render assistance.
The vessel altered course and proceeded to distress position (appx.1 hr away from the notification point) and commenced searching the vessel 4 miles lee of the distress position.
