Description of Incident
Whilst sitting outside of Port a Daughter Craft (DC) Crew were tasked to enter Port to collect a marine assessor and a number of mannequins to facilitate the conducting of validation trials later that morning, prior to the mother vessel entering Port for the scheduled crew change.
Whilst the DC was in transit it travelled outside the recognised navigational channel, from this, it is suspected that the DC passed over a known navigational hazard outside of the recognised Port navigational channel. This area is clearly identified on the Port Navigational Chart as a drying area (a region of the seabed that is covered by water at high tide but exposed at low tide) with an identification and navigational warning light. The result being severe damage to the hull of the daughter craft.
