However, the ship never appeared again.
The United States Coast Guard received an alert on Tuesday, December 29, from the authorities of the Bahamas. The route that the ship was taking was only 130 kilometers long, but it has been lost for more than 7 days.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the disappeared,” said Capt. Stephen Burdian, who asked anyone with information to contact the Coast Guard.
José Hernández, a US Coast Guard noncommissioned officer, told CBS12 News television that the turbulence of the water made search tasks difficult. Likewise, he warned that they did not have enough information about the crew members, which also hampered the rescue operation, which was ultimately unsuccessful.
The mystery of the ‘Bermuda triangle’

However, according to an article in ‘National Geographic’, 2017, One of the main reasons why this place is identified as a high accident area is the large number of air and maritime routes that cross there.
The argument is that the more vehicles that frequent that area, the more accidents will be reported.

And even saying that it is an area of high accident rate may not be so close to reality, since since 2013, A study led by the organization WWF International, showed that the ‘triangle of death’ was not among the 10 most dangerous locations for boats in the world.
In fact, the only area of America within that ‘top’ was the Panama Canal.
