The authorities said the Princess Aya had just left Binangonan for Talim Island when it was met by the inclement weather. The passengers went to the left side of the boat because of fear. It lost its balance and its outrigger was damaged.
Strong winds and heavy rain scared the passengers of the ill-fated M/B Princess Aya before it turned to its side and eventually capsized, survivors told GMA Integrated News.
The authorities said the Princess Aya had just left Binangonan for Talim Island when it was met by the inclement weather. "Doon po banda, ano pa, parang talagang hangin lang. Tapos noong bandang ano rito, biglang ano talaga, biglang ulan. Tapos hangin," Dorado said. "Magkasama po kami sa likod. Eh noong lumubog na po, siyempre nag-anuhan lang po kami, deretso talon na po" Milagrosa said.
