Quick response by the Rescue Coordination Center Fiji and the Fiji Police WATERPOL Unit resulted in the successful rescue of two men outside the Suva Harbour over the weekend.
Police say the two men were returning from Beqa when a fire that is believed to have started from the engine room engulfed their boat.
A call for help was received and a team from the WATERPOL Unit were deployed.
Officers were able to locate the two who had abandoned their vessel and were on board a smaller craft, and brought them back safely to land.
