Watco assisted the KZN and Mpumalanga SAPS Search and Rescue teams to recover 2 male bodies from Zaaihoek dam between Saturday the 2nd and Sunday the 3rd of September 2023

Apparently a 39 year old male entered the water to retrieve a canoe that were swept away by strong winds when he started struggling to stay afloat. A second, 51 year old male also entered the water to try and assist the younger male. Unfortunately both males disappeared under the water. A search for the missing males were conducted on Saturday but later suspended overnight. On Sunday morning 10:15 both males were recovered from the water.

Condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.

Heads up to KZN and Mpumalanga SAPS Search and Rescue, Watco Emergency Services, EMRS, Pruyt Security, Manny and Morne who assisted with their boats and sonars.

We urge everyone over the coming summer season to be vigilant when enjoying time alongside water bodies with their family and friends.

Regards

Team Watco
