Newsroom July 8 07:47

Stunned Passengers on the Super Express ferry saw a castaway in a red lifeboat amid a sea storm in the area between Tinos and Mykonos.

In particular, the man found at sea was alone in a 10-meter speedboat that sank. Subsequently, he sent an “SOS” signal at Mykonos Port Authority and which then alerted the passenger ferry “Super Express” that was making a route from Tinos to Mykonos. The man was rescued by the passenger boat and is being taken to Tinos for medical examinations.
