Guardia Civil take urgent supplies to yacht crew in the Canary Islands

TWO young people who were moored at Lobos Island off Las Palmas did not know how to complete the documents in order to allow them to enter the port of Corralejo and after 10 days moored off the island, they ran out of water.

They therefore called 062 requesting urgent assistance and given their difficult situation, a unit of the Guardia Civil Maritime Unit purchased goods for them and took them to the yacht.
