   On 9 november, station freeport received a cellular phone call from the F/V joyce
   Freeport Sunken Vessel; Freeport, Texas · Freeport, Texas · Gulf of Mexico

   Freeport Sunken Vessel; Freeport, Texas.
   Freeport, Texas.
   1. On 9 November, Station Freeport received a cellular phone call from the F/V Joyce. She was listing hard to port and taking on water in 8-10 foot seas southeast of Freeport, Texas. Fearing the vessel would sink, the three crew members were safely hoisted by a USCG HH-65 and taken to shore. MSO Galveston requested a tactical trajectory and evaluation of the potential environmental threat of spilled diesel given the current location and conditions (see Hotline #02). The vessel was initially reported as sunk; a subsequent overflight stated the vessel was awash and no pollution was observed. Additional overflights are scheduled and a salvage company has been secured. The NOAA SSC is standing by. USCG district 8.

   Sunken Vessel; Freeport, Texas.
   Freeport, Texas.
   1. On November 9, 1998, USCG Station Freeport received a cellular phone call from the F/V Joyce. She was listing hard to port and taking on water in 8- to10-foot seas southeast of Freeport, Texas. Fearing the vessel would sink, the three crew members were safely hoisted by a USCG HH-65 and taken to shore. NOAA was notified of this incident by MSO Galveston who requested a tactical trajectory and evaluation of the potential environmental threat of spilled diesel. The fishing vessel was reported sunk about 1 mile off the Texas coast, just south of Freeport. The vessel had 3, 00 gallons of diesel fuel onboard. NOAA provided detailed trajectory implications. Subsequent overflights identified the vessel as awash, but not sunk. There were no reports of oil leaking from the vessel and the vessel was salvaged. USCG district 8. Keyword: none.
   2. COMMODITY: MARINE DIESEL2. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 3000 GALLONS.
