The 'Angleviken' came across a fisherman floating in the Java Sea for two days in a life ring, 12 nautical miles from land. The master of the 'Avgleviken', Captain Bhanu Kundi, reportedly sighted an object floating in the water approximately 2.5 nautical miles ahead of the tanker while they were sailing in the Java Sea. He maneuvered the vessel and sounded the general alarm with a man overboard announcement when they realized it was a person floating in the water. The crew of Indian, Ukrainian, and Filipino seafarers started the rescue operation. They successfully recovered the man in just 45 minutes from when the alarm was sounded. He had jumped from the fishing boat he was working on because he had been working without pay. He was brought aboard safely and both conscious and uninjured.
