A cabin ship named Mako Kuddi with 20 passengers has disappeared in the area of the Bermuda Triangle between Florida and the Bahamas in the United States. The United States Coast Guard announced on Saturday the suspension of the search after a three-day search.
The ship left Bimini Island last Monday and was scheduled to reach Lake Worth in the southern state of Florida, about 60 miles (130 kilometers) away, the coast guard said. However, the Coast Guard said in a statement Tuesday that the ship had not returned to port. Over the next three days, for about 64 hours, a joint team from both countries conducted aerial and maritime surveys over an area of 16,000 square miles (44,000 kilometers). However, the search was suspended on Friday because the ship could not be found.
“We extend our condolences to the families of the missing,” Seventh District Capt. Stephen V. Burdian said in a statement. I also pray for the missing. We seek the help of the residents of the surrounding coastline. They have been asked to contact us as soon as possible after receiving any information about the missing persons.
First Class Jose Hernandez, a public affairs officer for the United States Coast Guard, said they had been challenged by rough seas and limited information on ships sailing the route during search and rescue operations. The hard part is that the longer it takes to find someone, the less likely they are to rescue them alive, he said.
The Bermuda Triangle is a special triangular region in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean. Towards the end of WWII, on December 5, 1945, five TVM Avengers and a rescue plane mysteriously disappeared. Even then, several ships and planes disappeared.
After years and years of mysterious disappearances of dozens of ships and planes, the Bermuda Triangle has earned the nickname of the Terrible Territory through movies, TV documentaries, novels and pop songs.
