Thirteen fishermen from Andhra Pradesh were rescued on Monday morning after their canoe capsized in the sea off Colva beach in Goa, a state government-appointed rescue agency reported.
According to a spokesman for Drishti Marine Lifesavers, the boat carrying the fishermen capsized 70 meters away from the Colva coastline at around 10:15 am. The fishermen, aged between 25 and 50, were thrown into the rough sea.
Upon spotting the distress, eight on-duty Drishti Marine lifesavers rushed to their aid using surfboards, two jet skis, and a rescue tube. During the operation, a jet ski operator sustained a nasal bone injury and was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. All 13 fishermen were brought back to shore and had their health parameters checked before being allowed to leave.
