The captain of the Ashtavinayak boat, and his team, who saved 35 passengers from a sinking yacht just 1.5 nautical miles from the Gateway of India on Sunday, narrated the incident to mid-day. The owner of the boat claimed the passengers didn't even thank them and disappeared from the location.

Unlike reported earlier, the passengers of the yacht Tyche weren't saved by those onboard a boat that was on its way to the Gateway of India. Captain Hashuram Thakur, 55, of the Ashtavinayak boat said he and his sailors, Abu Mussa Sadar, 35, Ali Mandal, 30, and Saurabh Thakur, 40, rushed to the aid of the troubled yacht from the Gateway.
