NTT - Basarnas Kupang evacuated four fishermen who were adrift in the waters of the Rote Strait, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). The boat carrying the fishermen had an accident.
"Basarnas Kupang received information from the families of the fishermen about the marine accident experienced by four fishermen who were on a voyage to Rote Island, because the motorboat they were traveling on had a leak," said Head of the Kupang Basarnas I Putu Sudayana in Kupang, NTT, Wednesday, May 17, confiscated by Antara.
According to him, the motorboat carrying the four fishermen departed from Namosain Beach, Kupang City, on Tuesday, May 16 at 23.00 WITA to Rote, Rote Ndao Regency.
On the way, the ship experienced a leak in the Rote Strait and the four fishermen tried to overcome the ship's leakage. But it failed due to dark conditions so the ship was filled with sea water.
The fishermen were floating trying to save themselves in the body of the ship that was adrift on the surface of the sea water. They also asked Basarnas for help for evacuation.
