00:00Every mariner knows that when they see a red flare,
00:03this means there is a distress situation.
00:06So they alerted the authorities.
00:09I saw a red flare.
00:13And then my first mate and I, we decided it's quiet now.
00:17We can go both.
00:18And we jumped into the tender.
00:20Captain Borner and his crew scour the sea
00:23in search of the survivors.
00:26A moment later, we saw a flashing light.
00:31And this was the light of the life raft.
00:35And the people in the raft saw us coming, I think,
00:39and waved also with a torch.
00:43Then we approached and found 50 people, including
00:47a baby and four wounded.
00:51And first, we tried to tow the raft, but this was impossible.
00:55So we took the people over to our tender
01:00and brought them to the ship.
01:03The people were very quiet.
01:05Only the baby was crying a bit.
01:09I think they were under shock, all of them.
