Three fishermen from Hinoba-an town in Negros Occidental have returned home to their families after being stranded at sea for two days and one night when their boat capsized in the rough waters of Sulu Sea. The fishing boat MB Princess Henna sank in open waters, and the three fishermen were rescued off Siocon town in Zamboanga del Norte on Sunday after the Singapore-flagged bulk carrier MV MAUD spotted them drifting at sea. Hinoba-an Mayor Daph Anthony Reliquias confirmed on Monday that the rescued fishermen are residents of Barangay Culipapa.
