LOL,
I was a submariner and it's been a hell of a long time since any skimmer had to rescue a boat (US Navy). The last one being the diesel boat (USS Bonefish in 1988) that had the battery fire off of the East coast. Even in that case the sub crew rescued the sub, the skimmer was used only to evacuate unnecessary personnel from the sub.
They were lucky they were able to surface... had she not been able to, that would have been where we came in - four-point moor with the anchors and spuds, and send down the SRC...
