He said waves of up to three metres in height and strong winds had hampered efforts to find survivors during the day. Police and rescue authorities denied these reports and said it was still afloat, but with a broken engine and out of radio contact.

Searchers also found an inflated life raft with emergency supplies drifting in the sea with no people on it, he said.

“The ship had 122 people on board”.

Rescue boats were headed out to the scene but were not expected to reach the vessel until Sunday morning, local time, due to the choppy water.
