Summary of the Case: On Thursday the 25th of April 2019, our shift team was alerted at 9.38pm CEST by a contact person to a boat with 13 travellers, including 3 children on its way to Kos island. We could not establish direct contact to the boat and at 9.48pm, we alerted the Greek coastguards to the boat in distress and forwarded the GPS position we had received. Already at 10.09pm, we were informed by the contact person that the people had reached the island independently. We in turn informed the Greek coastguards about the arrival of the boat.
