Jakarta: A Spanish man and three of his children are missing after a tourist boat sank in rough seas in Indonesia, rescuers told AFP on Saturday.
The vessel was carrying 11 people when it sank in the Padar Island Strait near the popular tourist destination of Labuan Bajo on Friday night, state news agency Antara said.
The missing man's wife and one of their daughters were among seven people rescued, along with four crew members and a tour guide, according to the search mission.
The search continued on Saturday for the remaining four passengers -- a father, two boys and a girl.
The mission's coordinator, Fathur Rahman, said in a statement to AFP that his team had found debris and parts of the vessel's hull near where the boat went down.
