Four Taiwanese and One Filipino Escape Penghu Boat Fire
Posted on 2024-03-07 06:53:13
Four Taiwanese and one Philippine fishermen have escaped unharmed from a fire
that erupted on a fishing boat in waters near Penghu.

According to the Coast Guard Administration, the "Chan Cheng Hung" caught
fire some 2.8-nautical miles west of Hu-Jing Island.

All five crew members managed to get off the boat and were rescued by the
"Man Fu Chun 99" fishing boat before a Coast Guard patrol vessel arrived at
the scene.

The burnt out wreckage of "Chan Cheng Hung" drifted north to within
1.3-nautical miles of Xi-Yu Township before being retrieved and towed back to
Magong Harbor by the "Man Fu Chun 99" and another boat.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
