The <i>Nadir<\/i> had previously found the heavily overcrowded and unseaworthy boat following a radio distress call from a Frontex aircraft, distributed life jackets and took a baby on board when a coast guard vessel arrived at the scene of the sea emergency. The evacuation had only just begun when the steel boat suddenly sank and 30 people were floating in the water. Thanks to the swift assistance provided by the crew of the sailing ship, all the shipwrecked people were rescued.   <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div><span class=\"Absatz-Standardschriftart1\"><span lang=\"DE\">&#8220;When we found the heavily overcrowded boat, the side walls were only ten centimetres out of the water and the occupants had already started bailing water,&#8221; said Ingo Werth, skipper on the <i>Nadir<\/i>. His crew therefore immediately began distributing life jackets. They also noticed a six-month-old baby, which they took on board the sailing ship for safety, as the steel boat could capsize at any time due to its unstable construction and increasing waves. When an Italian coastguard ship arrived shortly afterwards and began to evacuate the people, panic broke out among the occupants. The steel boat lost its balance, water sloshed over the side and the boat sank in a matter of seconds. Only 15 people had been taken onto the coastguard vessel at the time, the remaining 30 were suddenly in the water and therefore in acute danger of losing their lives.       <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"Absatz-Standardschriftart1\"><span lang=\"DE\"> <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"Absatz-Standardschriftart1\"><span lang=\"DE\">By joining forces, the crews of the two ships were able to rescue all the people swimming in the water. &#8220;Our dinghy was close to the action the whole time and was therefore able to quickly throw a lifejacket into the water for the last person who didn&#8217;t yet have one,&#8221; says Ingo Werth. &#8220;We had already lowered our centifloat (a nine-metre-long inflated rescue tube) into the water so that eight people could hold on to it.&#8221; The coastguard vessel then took over all the people who had been secured by the <i>Nadir<\/i> in the meantime, as well as the baby taken on board, and brought them to Lampedusa.     <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"Absatz-Standardschriftart1\"><span lang=\"DE\"> <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"Absatz-Standardschriftart1\"><span lang=\"DE\">It was the fourth boat in distress that the <i>Nadir<\/i> was able to assist on the current observation mission &#8211; the second this year.

The Nadir had previously found the heavily overcrowded and unseaworthy boat following a radio distress call from a Frontex aircraft, distributed life jackets and took a baby on board when a coastguard vessel arrived at the distress at sea. The evacuation had only just begun when the steel boat suddenly sank and 30 people were floating in the water. Thanks to the swift assistance provided by the crew of the sailing ship, all the shipwrecked people were rescued.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/?p=21697#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/?p=21697"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/?p=21697#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/1_Resqship_Stahtboot-Seenotfall_29.05.2024_Rettungswestenuebergabe.jpeg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/1_Resqship_Stahtboot-Seenotfall_29.05.2024_Rettungswestenuebergabe.jpeg","width":640,"height":426,"caption":"RESQSHIP\/Marc Vischer"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/?p=21697#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Emergency at sea in the Mediterranean: Boat sinks during rescue operation &#8211; 30 people in the water"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#website","url":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/","name":"RESQSHIP","description":"Seenotrettung","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#organization","name":"Resqship","url":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/RESQSHIP_Logo_orangeweiss_RGB-copy-1.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/RESQSHIP_Logo_orangeweiss_RGB-copy-1.png","width":300,"height":43,"caption":"Resqship"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/#\/schema\/person\/e2e533390380d1ef9f06e13d387e3ce5","name":"mawame","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/6cf3cb6affd3e8ce3374b04da2160ee85bb236399e4e52eabda2128eceb8b426?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/6cf3cb6affd3e8ce3374b04da2160ee85bb236399e4e52eabda2128eceb8b426?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/6cf3cb6affd3e8ce3374b04da2160ee85bb236399e4e52eabda2128eceb8b426?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"mawame"},"url":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/author\/mawame\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21697"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21697\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21701,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21697\/revisions\/21701"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/resqship.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
