eNCA reports that the rescue mission to save a skipper from the capsized service launch Troupant in Cape Town, ended almost 28 hours later under tragic circumstances.  

The body of Steven Lategaan was found trapped in the engine room of the vessel.  Two survivors from the boat accident were rushed to hospital on Saturday.  One is in a critical condition while the other is stable.  Lategaan’s family has blamed what they've described as disorganised rescue efforts and lack of communication for the death of their loved one.  In a statement the police and the SA Marine Authority say they would be investigating the incident further.
