It has been the occupants of the boat themselves who have called asking for help for their rescue and giving references for their location.

In the boat, of pneumatic type, were traveling 52 people, including three women and several minors. All have been transferred to the Commercial Dock of Arrecife, where they arrived at about 5 pm.
