Australians OK after boat wrecked in quake

A GROUP of Australians on a surf charter boat off Sumatra jumped into the water
when a three metre high wave, generated by an undersea quake, forced another
boat into their craft, causing an explosion.
The major 7.7-magnitude undersea quake hit Kepulauan Mentawai, off the west
coast of Indonesia, at 9.42pm (0142 AEDT) on Monday, seismologists said, but
there were no reports of damage or casualties. A tsunami warning was issued,
before being cancelled.
Australian man Rick Hallet, who has a charter boat operation in Sumatra, told
the Nine Network 15 people, including nine Australians, were on the back deck
of the boat in the bay off Mentawai Islands when they felt what they thought
was a quake.
"Within several minutes a large wall of white water came through the bay and
took us out essentially,'' he said.
"It was night time around about 10pm ... a two to three metre wall of white
water came into the bay and there was another boat anchored out the side of us
... the wave picked that boat up and brought it towards us and ran straight
into us and our boat exploded, caught on fire, we had a fireball on the back
deck and right through the saloon within seconds,'' he said.
