N1 SlovenijaIndependentCenterFactual 85Objective 90yesterday For the first time, the skipper of a sailing vessel that was hit by a catamaran spoke up: "We didn't even hear it".A severe maritime accident occurred three weeks ago near the island of Šolta, where a sailboat collided with a catamaran, resulting in the deaths of four Czech nationals. The skipper of the sailboat, Vlada, has now spoken publicly for the first time about the incident, describing the dramatic moments leading up to the collision. He recounted that they did not hear the approaching catamaran and were unaware of its speed until it was too late. The collision happened quickly, and both vessels were damaged. Survivors attempted to escape from the sinking sailboat, with Vlada helping his daughter who had been injured. The surviving crew members of the catamaran were rescued and taken ashore, but they spent hours waiting for medical attention in wet clothing. An investigation into the incident is ongoing, and the captain of the catamaran is under suspicion. The skipper of the sailboat suffered multiple injuries, including broken ribs.
