Fortunately, there were no injuries among the six passengers, the six crew members and the captain of the Serena III, a 106-foot vessel. <\/p>\n

The emergency call was made before 6 p.m. on Monday, reporting that the vessel was beginning to fill with water. About two hours later the yacht had completely sunk. The events took place 13 miles offshore, a relatively close distance that facilitated the rescue, said Tim Morgan, a marine rescue captain. <\/p>\n

The causes of the accident appear to have been mechanical problems, although the Coast Guard is still investigating.<\/p>\n

Four of the six crew members were rescued by a nearby fishing boat, Os Merexos, which picked them up from the life rafts they managed to jump into when the Safr\u00e1n flooded, capsized and was left bow to the sun (although it was finally swallowed by the sea). <\/p>\n

The four rescued men from the Safr\u00e1n arrived at the Cantabrian town “well” from a physical point of view, but “very distressed and worried” due to the “very difficult” circumstances they experienced after the sinking of the boat.<\/p>\n

During the transfer to their homes, around 5.00 a.m., the survivors, “dejected and very frightened”, reported that “everything happened very quickly”. “Very soon after the impact, the ship capsized,” according to the shipowner. While the five of them managed to get on a raft, the other five “missed” the fall into the water, they said. <\/p>\n

The voyage was uneventful, until December 30 arrived. That day did not go unnoticed, at least for the ship’s 32 crew members. Three explosions took out the then largest cargo ship in the world in just three minutes. The 315-meter long and 50-meter wide ship was left underwater, with only two survivors: Imeldo Barreto and Epifanio Perdomo. <\/p>\n

The two Tenerife natives were shipwrecked in a life raft hoping that one day they would be found. After 20 days adrift, they were rescued on January 18, 1976. Today, 38 years later, the story is brought back to life by V\u00edctor Calero, director of the documentary Los n\u00e1ufragos del Berge Istra, and in memory of all those who died on that ship. It is a project not to leave in the past what Imeldo and Epifanio will always remember. <\/p>\n

The “Napoleon Solo” was a self-designed and self-built boat of only 6.5 meters in length. On January 29, during a small storm, the ship suffered a collision with a whale which led to the “Napoleon Solo” inevitably sinking in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Before the ship sank, Callahan had enough time to inflate the life raft and get some emergency equipment on board. <\/p>\n

The life raft, aided by the trade winds and the South Equatorial Current, traveled more than 1,500 miles across the Atlantic Ocean for 76 days of pure survival. On April 20, 1982, she managed to make out the horizon of Marie Galante Island, southwest of Guadeloupe, and with the help of a fisherman was finally able to reach land. <\/p>\n

Bill and Simone Butler were able to survive aboard their life raft for 66 days. By rationing the food on board they were able to feed themselves for the first 30 days, the rest they had to survive on raw fish, a turtle they caught with their bare hands and three liters of water a day which they were able to do thanks to their portable watermaker. 66 days later Bill and his wife were rescued by a Costa Rican patrol boat only 13 miles offshore. <\/p>\n
