Do not tell me the ferry did not turn back!

OK probably she did, in every countries in the world on every boat there are procedures for a man overboard.

Thoughts are with the family. No parent wants to invest 20 years attempting to nurture and develop a good young man, only for illness to result in this.

RIP Yoo.
