Also waiting for three fishermen from Pemalang. After four days of not knowing the direction to join the sea waves by leaning on the board, they were finally found by Basarnas.

Head of Semarang Basarnas Heru Suhartanto said the three fishermen were adrift in the middle of the sea after their ship leaked.

"They swam from the waters of Tanjung Jati, Jepara Regency, to the west to Asemdoyong waters, Pemalang Regency, until they were finally rescued by fishermen and immediately taken home this morning," he said, quoted in a press release by the Semarang Basarnas, Thursday, August 24.

"The three fishermen while at sea can survive because they eat one instant noodle and one bottle of drinking water is suitable for consumption in the middle of the sea," he continued.

He said the three fishermen tried to swim from the waters of Tanjung Jati to Asemdoyong waters, which are about 85 nautical miles away, with flashlights and valuable documents.

The Shrimp Sari 1 motorboat (KM) carrying the three fishermen on Sunday, August 20, departed from Juwana port to look for fish. However, after arriving in the waters of Tanjung Jati, the ship had problems.

At 17.35 WIB, Krisardi as the captain of the ship informed the owner's agent that the ship had a leak.

The SAR team was then dispatched from Kartini beach to Tanjung Jati waters to help them.

After the unfortunate incident that happened to fishermen named Krisardi (21), Tanto Prasetyo (46), and Mokhamad Fatkhuri (50) from Kendaldoyong Village, Petarukan District, Pemalang Regency, Heru appealed to fishermen to wear safety equipment when going to sea.

"Those who are active at sea to use safety equipment, hopefully this incident will not happen again," he said.
