Mark Levy, Joe Hildebrand & Luke Grant

The Portland Bay cargo ship is currently adrift off the Royal National Park with no power. 

There are concerns for the safety of the 21 crew members stuck onboard in wild seas with no option of an airlift out due to weather.

The ship is currently double anchored with a tug boat on its way from Wollongong to assist.

There are concerns the ship could break anchor and be pushed into the cliffs at Wattamolla.
