Earlier this afternoon a tour boat carrying 22 Korean tourists went down after reportedly taking on a huge wave. All 27 people were rescued including 22 passengers and 5 crew members. All were reportedly wearing life jackets at the time. Over crowding is the suspected reason for the sinking of the boat. Pattaya Sea Rescue squad and authorities are investigating the incident as well as the tour operators licenses.
Just a few days ago there was a collision just off the coast of Hong Kong where passengers were not as lucky. Always remember just because you're on holiday doesn't mean to let your guard down. When going by sea always wear life presevers or at least make sure there is sufficient amount for passengers and crew and they are easily accessable in an emergency.
