Qld: Stranded Indon ship to be towed tonight
An Indonesian sailing ship .. stranded on a south-east Queensland beach .. will be
towed off the sand at high tide tonight.
The Navy says a tug boat's on the way .. and they should be able to re-float it as
conditions and tides will be good tonight.
The 35-metre Arung Samudera will then be towed to Brisbane .. and will be berthed near
the naval barracks at Bulimba.
The tall ship was on its way to Sydney for APEC .. when it ran into a storm which brought
flash flooding to the Sunshine Coast and Wide Bay last Thursday.
