Today, Wahyu said the joint SAR team consisting of three teams or SRU was deployed to conduct searches at a number of predetermined points.
"The first SRU used the Basarnas jukung to search for coordinates that had been determined to be 6 nautical miles, the second SRU used a fishing boat, the third SRU monitored the person along the West Coast coast," he said.
