Missing Fishing Vessel “Give Thanks” Found Sunken Off Barbuda; Crew Still Missing
The 23-foot Pirogue fishing vessel “Give Thanks”, which went missing in December, has been discovered at the bottom of the sea approximately four miles west of Cedar Tree Point on the northwest side of Barbuda.
The vessel was found purely by chance by a group of diving Barbudans in about 50 feet of water. Onboard, they discovered empty fishing pots, suggesting that the three missing crew members may have been en route to set them at the time of the sinking.
The disappearance of the boat occurred during severe weather conditions, with high winds and rough seas recorded on that day. However, there is still no sign of the three men who were aboard when the vessel went missing.
Efforts are now underway to refloat the vessel and return it to Barbuda, with the assistance of a friend of the island.
Authorities have not yet provided updates on whether further searches will be conducted for the missing crew.

A tragic incident. I hope the authorities are able to bring closure to this difficult situation.
Praying for the safe return of the missing crew members. May they be found soon.
I can’t imagine the pain the families are going through right now. Hoping for positive news soon.
My deepest sympathies to the families of the missing crew. This is a very tragic situation.
I’m sure many are holding onto hope, but this must be incredibly difficult for all those involved.
This tragedy is a reminder of the dangers faced by those at sea. We need to keep the families and search teams in our prayers.
Sigh ….. Heartbreaking news. My thoughts are with the families of the crew members who are still missing.

Mr. Editor,
I hate to be the BEARER of THIS!!!!
….My heart is Numb and My eyes are Filling up as my thoughts continue to RACE …. And I Begin to wonder about the HEIGHT of THESE 3 Fishermen … as Well As THOSE other Fishermen who have also gone MISSING Recently…..
Has Anyone Paid Any Attention to a Common Factor Existing Among the 3 RECENT Individuals Who Have for want of A Better Word — DISAPPEARED?
……. THEY ARE ALL ABOUT 6 Feet Tall …. 1 Female and 2 Males ……
I am PRAYING that THIS factor of The HEIGHT of the Last 3 Persons Who Have Disappeared is Inconsequential…… However, I can’t SHAKE THE POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS …….. Our Police SERVICE (Not FORCE) NEEDS OUTSIDE HELP NOW ….. PLEASE MR. Attorney General AND. MR. Prime Minister ….. PLEASE MOVE NOW!!!!!
Thank You….
Wow, I’m pretty sure this might not bring an ounce of hope to the family, it’s been so long….
OMG What’s going on?
wow what could have happened to the guy who was on the boat.
It is the first time I am reading this. Maybe I was under a rock. If it’s the first for me then it’s fresh like bread from an oven. Thanks for the information.
