According to my counterparts in the region, two fishers from Tobago have been reported missing at sea.
On Tuesday 11th of February 2025, they departed from Pigeon Point (Tobago) on a 28FT WHITE OPEN FIBREGLASS PIROGUE (BLUE BOTTOM and BLUE/GREEN INSIDE) with TWO 60 HP MERCURY OUTBOARD ENGINES.
The vessel is registered as XENA, with registration number TFT 1528. The crew included Albert “BB” James (captain) and Junior “Flehbeh” Thorne (deckhand).
If you see this vessel, please contact the ABDF Coast Guard on VHF channel 16 or at: (268) 462-3206, (268) 462-2841, or (268) 462-2843.
