3 tourists rescued after 2 days in Philippine sea

ILOILO, Philippines (AP) — The Philippine coast guard says two German tourists and an Australian have been rescued after drifting at sea for two days.

Coast guard officer Venerando Celiz said Friday big waves capsized the small boat the tourists were in, and a passing ship found them clinging to the vessel.

The Filipino skipper is missing after attempting to swim ashore for help.
