FISHING TRAWLER HITS HARRINGTON BREAKWATER

Three commercial fishermen have made it safely ashore on the New South Wales Mid North Coast after their trawler ran aground on the Harrington breakwater on Thursday morning then sank.

At lunch time on Thursday the 18 metre vessel was semi submerged and resting on the sea floor with a falling tide at the coastal bar crossing east of Taree.

Some fuel spilled into the water after the grounding about 4am.

A plan is being formulated to salvage the trawler.
