Chevelle

Chevelle

The 72 foot long fishing vessel Chevelle went aground against the jetty at Newport, Oregon.   The fishing vessel caught a strong gust of wind and blown onto the jetty.  The vessel’s crab pots shifted and Chevelle developed a severe list allowing water ingress into the engine room.  The Coast Guard responded to the scene with a lifeboat and helicopter.   The helicopter lifted the four crew safely back to shore.  No reports of injuries.  The crew plans to salvage the vessel.
