Report says death 'extremely regrettable'
IT is "extremely regrettable" that a piece of safety equipment played a part in a deckhand being pulled overboard to his death, a marine accident investigator has said.
The man was shooting creels on the fishing vessel Kingfisher when the incident happened off Wick, Caithness, on July 12 last year.
The Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) found he had inadvertently passed a toggle on the creel rope through a loop on his personal flotation device (PFD) when connecting the creel to the rope. The other crew members on deck heard a scream and saw him being dragged across the shooting table and over the vessel's side.
