Great job by the navy. 926 passengers saved with only 9 reported dead.

Latest news a woman passenger found alive at sea 30 hours after the sinking.

I thought maybe one of their 3 Peacocks might have been involved in the rescue. The Phillipine Naval ship to the right is PG116 BRP Nicolas Mahusay or PG117 BRP Dionisio Ojeda. They are two of six ships belonging to their Thomas Batillo Class, formerly South Korean SK Sea Dolphin Class.

Nice link here to Phillipine Navy ships.
