The Royal Australian Navy clearance divers disappeared back over the side of the ship as quickly as the smoke from their grenades cleared. Without fuss they retrieved their now empty air tanks and gas axes and made their way back to their ship which was waiting out of visual site over the horizon. For these men it was a five mile swim, though some of the inflatable canoes could be used to carry a lot of the gear. Like their SAS companions, these men kept their identities very close to their chests. Nobody could recognise them in the street and even family only knew they were navy boys. Quiet as hunting sharks they finned their way across the sea.
The SAS were also quickly off the scene without bothering to clean up their mess. The prisoners were handed over to the Commonwealth Police who now appeared by helicopter drop as well. A boat was on its way to clear up the bodies and the captain and crew, were also being lifted from the ship. The owners had a second crew coming on board to work with the tugs and repair crew who had to weld up the holes, that the clearance divers had cut in the hull. Police divers were also clearing out the remnants of the explosives. The ship was likely to be afloat and piloted out of the reef within days.
