Fishing boat sinks off the Mijas coast

A fishing boat, ‘Marina Josefa’ sunk this Tuesday morning in Mijas Costa some 300, from the Calaburra light house. The boat, about five metres in length, went down just after 11am, and the coastguard in Tarifa was alerted at about 1115am. They sent a rescue boat and helicopter to the scene, but their services were not needed as the two fishermen on the boat managed to make their own way to shore, helped by local bathers. The reason for the sinking is not known.
