On Friday, February 21, 2025, the Grenada Coast Guard responded to a distress call regarding a vessel in trouble within Grenadian waters. Despite facing treacherous sea conditions, the team swiftly launched a search and rescue operation.
Upon reaching the reported location, the Coast Guard discovered that the vessel had already sunk after taking on excessive water.
A thorough search of the surrounding area led to the discovery of four male Trinidadian nationals, ages 35 to 55, adrift on a raft that was also beginning to take on water.
The team successfully secured the men and transported them safely to the Queenโs Jetty, after which they were taken to the General Hospital for medical evaluation.
Following the rescue, the Grenada Coast Guard took the opportunity to emphasize the importance of maritime safety.
Boaters are strongly advised to review weather conditions before departure, as rough seas played a significant role in the difficulties encountered by the distressed vessel.
