The Salvamar Acrux is currently trying to locate the dinghy that, apparently, is one mile off the coast.

Up to the moment the number of people who would travel on the boat is unknown.

Upon the arrival of the dinghy, the Civil Guard, Consortium Firefighters, Red Cross, and National Police have been activated. It is expected to arrive at Puerto Naos during the morning.
