Rescue at Sea: Tanker 'Silver Muna' Saves Overdue Yacht Crew Off Delaware
On December 13, 2022, the U.S. Coast Guard, assisted by the tanker 'Silver Muna', successfully located the overdue yacht 'Atrevida II' about 214 miles east of Delaware. Onboard were Kevin Hyde, 65, and Joe Ditomasso, 76, who were last heard from on December 3 after departing Oregon Inlet, North Carolina, en route to Marathon, Florida from Cape May, New Jersey. After being reported overdue on December 11, the Coast Guard initiated urgent marine broadcasts and communicated with vessels in the vicinity as part of their search efforts. The Coast Guard mobilized extensive resources, including three aircraft, two helicopters, and several vessels like the USCGC 'Oak', USCGC 'Richard Snyder', and USS 'San Jacinto'. They scoured approximately 21,164 square miles of ocean, covering a region from northern Florida to east of New Jersey. After days of searching, the 'Atrevida II' was discovered adrift without fuel and power, causing their communication systems to fail. Hyde and Ditomasso were able to attract the attention of the 'Silver Muna' by waving their arms and a flag. They were safely rescued at 4:18 p.m. and underwent evaluations by the tanker’s medical team, reporting no immediate health issues. The duo, along with their pet dog, will remain on the 'Silver Muna' as it heads to New York, with an estimated time of arrival on December 14. There, they will be transferred to a Coast Guard vessel for further assessment and eventual reunion with their loved ones.
