Status of WTM Investigation: Concluded
Place of Incident: Western Mediterranean
Summary: On Saturday the 18th of September 2021, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by a relative to a group of nine travellers, all men, in distress in the Alboran Sea. The travellers had left from Temsamane the previous afternoon, heading towards Motril on a green polyester boat. We were not able to establish direct contact to the boat, but immediately relayed all the information we had to the Spanish search and rescue organisation Salvamento Maritimo. The following morning Salvamento Maritimo informed us that the Guardia Civil had rescued a boat corresponding to the description we had given. Later, the relative confirmed that the travellers had arrived safely to Motril.
