Salut Raph, salut Nav,
...J'aimerais aussi connaitre le fin fond de l'histoire...peut-être était-ce un autre naufrage? Il me semble que cette histoire est arrivée en Mars cette année...
Ce sujet a déjà été traité en février sur ce forum. Cet incident a eu lieu le 2 janvier 2011.
Pour compléter l'information, voici 3 vidéos sur youtube prisent par un touriste.

Yes of course thanks to the owner of la Salangane who came at least 15 minutes before the coast guard, and thanks to Art Cafe for there help after. Remenber that many people was not on the boat wainting but where on the water for a long time and some came back on the roof because they took the decision that it was more safe to stay and the rest of them tried to swim on land

Voici comment la presse locale a traité le sujet dans Palawan Times :
36 tourists rescued from stricken boat in El Nido
Posted on January 31, 2011 by The Palawan Times

PASSENGERS OF a motor boat carrying mostly Dutch tourists were rescued and brought to safety after it encountered engine trouble around 15 nautical miles east of Cabuli Island in El Nido, Palawan last January 2.
According to initial reports, at around 12:30 pm on the day that the incident occurred, the Joint Task Force Malampaya or JTFM, headed by Commodore Jaime S. Bernardino, received a report from the Philippine Coast Guard that a sinking boat, already half submerged in the water, with several passengers onboard was sighted in offshore El Nido.
The passenger boat, bearing the name M/B Jessabel, was bound to sail to Coron that day but failed to withstand the strong gust of wind and the forceful assault of big waves brought on by the rough sea condition because of the bad weather.
A search and rescue team was immediately organized and dispatched by the JTFM to come to the aid of the passengers of the sinking boat.
The fifteen foreign nationals who were first rescued were identified as Luigi Casanova, Vito D. Cagno, Zaira Vicckya, Tom Cevey, Patrick Cevey, Christine Michaud, David Parsons, Laura Roscoe, Marina Gijzen, Francis Morin, Lili Anna Morin, Solage Morin, Carin Guellette, Jean Philippe Pariseaer and Andrey Vinogradon.
The two Filipinos with them were identified as Joey R. Bozar and James Razote.
Due to the bad weather condition and because not all passengers of the boat would fit in the rescue ship, the rescue team had to come back the next day to retrieve the nineteen other passengers who were stranded in the island.
