Throughout the voyage, the tug experienced minor hiccups and eventually capsized on Wednesday evening.Massidas reasoned that the amount of water that had rushed into in the boat made the disaster inevitable. He was making his second trip with the tug.“The boat was taking in plenty water while I was in the engineer room helping to fix the engine. I left and go to my bunk and when I pressed my hand on the mattress, the force of the water spring it up and squeeze my hand.

Utilizing Jack’s red trousers the duo tried feverishly to signal the boat but competing with the waves and the noise emanating from the engine of the vessel it was difficult to get anyone’s attention.He added that they saw no crewmembers aboard the boat and suggested that the men were sleeping in their cabin.

Unknowingly,China Jerseys Wholesale, a strong bond developed between the two; they were no longer strangers.Massidas recalled that in the wee hours of Saturday (fourth day of the mishap), he saw land and awoke Jack and they plotted how to swim in.

Even when I reached land I didn’t stop thinking of Jack wondering where he could be and if he alright. Being alone scared me,Brian Gionta Jersey,” Massidas stated.Jack related that he too had awoken closer to land and suggested that it was probably Massidas’s efforts that led him there.“From since the incident me and he deh together. When I wake up and I didn’t see him I start fuh shout for him. I was worried and scared because I didn’t know which part of the water he deh,” Jack said.After several hours, Jack was rescued by a crew aboard a speedboat. Weak and unable to get into the speedboat on his own Jack told his rescuers about Massidas and the possibility of him being close by.He was handed over to the Guyana Defence Force Coast Guard and later transported to the Mabaruma Hospital.

He went in search of residents but did not find anyone. He was forced to sleep on the beach. The next morning he was rescued by a search team that comprised the dredge owner, for whom the tug was transporting the excavator before the tragedy took place.Minutes after his discovery, the GDF coast guard which was also part of the search team arrived at the location.Massidas has decided never to work again on sea while Jack said if he has to he would go. The young men are glad that they are both alive and rescued. They are worried about the other two missing crewmembers Captain John VanSluytman and Julian Garraway.
