- On Sunday afternoon, the St. Heinrich and Tutzing fire brigades and the German Lifesaving Society (DLRG) Schäftlarn-Wolfratshausen joined forces to save a sailing boat from sinking.
As Matthias Feichtbauer from the DLRG reports, his volunteers noticed the flooded boat during a practice trip.
“So the exercise became serious, even if fortunately it was only about the recovery of property,” he says.
The St. Heinrich fire brigade and the Tutzing fire brigade, alerted by the rescue center, came to the buoy field at the lido around 4.30 p.m. to empty the boat so that it did not sink to the bottom.
Then the boat was handed over to the owner.
It is difficult to quantify how high the property damage is; there were no people on the sailboat.
The mission lasted around an hour and a half.
As Mathias Feichtbauer sums up, it was a scenario that was often practiced in the past with the St. Heinrich fire brigade.
"The handles on both sides were right."
