Cemenet carrier Emeline sank in Flores sea, 11 missing, 6 rescued by Mahakan River
Cemenet carrier MV Emeline sank in 06-17.74S 118-52.62E at around 0300 UTC Jan 9 13, Flores sea, Indonesia, see map. Vessel departed from Soekarno-Hatta sea port in Makassar and was heading to Banyuwangi, East Java, presumably loaded with cement. Out of 17 crew two went missing during the evacuation, the rest managed to escape in two life rafts. On Jan 9 afternoon six sailors from one of the rafts were rescued by a freighter Mahakan River, nine on the other still adrift, last known position 06-22.75S 119-15.43E at 1100 UTC Jan 9. Presumably Emeline sank in rough weather overwhelmed by high waves, storm is still raging in the area, such that m/v Mahakan River had to abandon search and rescue operation and rush for refuge. In the morning Jan 10 authorities sent helicopter to locate the raft, but a search failed due to continuing storm. Not much details on cement carrier Emeline - Cement carrier MV. Emeline - DWT:2485.
