The rough sea caused a wave to impact the boat, and the water entered the engine room, which caused the sinking of the ship, which was about 400 meters offshore. A group of ships that were in the vicinity came to the rescue of the tourists and crew members, who were wearing life jackets, according to videos that were broadcast on social networks.
