Hoobah Boobah Navy's Submarine In Heroic Rescue

The H.B.S. (Hoobah Boobah Ship) "Yppah", the submarine recently acquired by the Hoobah Boobah navy, has just been involved in rescuing a half-dozen thrill-seekers who were apparently trying to reach Hoobah Boobah Land in a motor-yacht.

6 young people from an undisclosed South American country tried to steer a large pleasure boat towards the capital of Hoobah Boobah Land, Florjabeesh. The boat, which belonged to the family of one of the wealthy youngsters, was in danger of capsizing in rough waters off the Hoobah Boobah coast. The "Yppah" was sent to the scene, and a rescue team was able to bring the frightened, wet youngsters aboard before they were harmed.

The 6 young men and women, whose names are not being revealed by the Hoobah Boobah government, were dried off, fed, and brought to within 1000 meters of the coast of their home country (I guess this tells you that the country was not Bolivia or Paraguay, doesn't it?). The "Yppah" sent a distress signal on an internationally recognized radio frequency, then placed the six grateful South Americans in a rescue dinghy. The "Yppah" submerged and moved off by one kilometer so it could be close enough to make sure that the dinghy was picked up (it was, by a helicopter of the South American country's navy). The "Yppah" then returned to port.

The Royal Government of Hoobah Boobah Land wishes to discourage, in the strongest possible terms, anyone from trying to reach Hoobah Boobah Land by any means, but particularly by sea. The waters off the coast of H.B.L. are treacherous.
