The Commonwealth Government advertised for tenders for a salvage
operation for a vessel known as the ‘Golden Goose’ which sank off
the coast of Eden carrying 50 tons of Argyle Diamonds. As part of
the tender process the Commonwealth Government provided coordinates
of the last SOS call from the Golden Goose, tide guides and water
maps to indicate the place where the Golden Goose went to
ground.
Stella who operates a marine salvage business in Eden tendered
for the salvage operation. She based her tender on the
information provided by the Commonwealth Government. Stella’s
tender was successful.
Fred an employee of the Commonwealth Government supplied the
information for the tender. He had incorrectly written the
coordinates of the last recorded SOS and unfortunately used tide
guides from Eden in Queensland and not Eden in NSW.
Stella commenced the salvage operation which had required her to
outlay $100,000 manning and supplying the salvage vessel.
After six weeks of searching the area where the Golden Goose was
said to have run aground without success Stella contacted the
Commonwealth Government for further information.
Stan, who had been appointed to Fred’s position on his
retirement, advised Stella that the coordinates were not correct
and in fact the vessel had been found off Nowra that very
morning.
