Rare whitshel Posted April 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Sitting in the port of St kitts, a port boat capsized while helping untie our ropes. We heard an "Oscar Oscar Oscar " then lots of action. We lowered our speed boat and they are still trying to help them. Rumor said one man got out but one was still trapped. Again just a rumor on that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianjb Posted April 3, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 3, 2014 No report yet. The head waiter said an official word would come from the captain. I'm hoping the news is good for the people involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deniuh Posted April 3, 2014 #10 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I am a Kittitan living abroad. Our country is devastated by the news of these two men who lost their lives. We lost a young man at the airport yesterday who was servicing the elevators. Please pray for their families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATC cruiser Posted April 3, 2014 #11 Share Posted April 3, 2014 The small boat was capsized when our rear azipods pushed us away from the dock. The two men where thrown overboard and never resurfaced, only one had on a life vest, the other man's life vest came off when he was thrown into the water. The capsized boat was then pushed into the back of the Silhouette. All of this viewed from my aft balcony, kinda puts a damper on an otherwise wonderful cruise. Very sad for the families of these two men. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
