Carnival “Paradise” Ship
Rescues Sailor at Sea Off Cozumel’s
Coast
When departing from
Cozumel earlier this week – May 18th – the Carnival Cruise Ship “Paradise” received a distress call, and their response rescued
a sailor who claims his boat was sinking in the middle of the ocean.
The Carnival Cruise Line
ship came to the aid of the man, launching a lifeboat to retrieve the sailor,
who was picked up just 21km north of Cozumel, Mexico, where the Carnival
Paradise had just departed.
The sailor, who was not injured, was retrieved from the boat safely using one of the ship’s lifeboats. The mariner was brought onboard the Carnival Paradise. He was provided with food, water, and medical treatment. A rescue boat arrived from the Mexican Coast Guard to take the sailor back to land.
