The last thing a couple on a Caribbean cruise ship expected to hear when they opened their cabin window was cries for help.
An hour later, three American men, who had been clinging to their capsized speedboat without life-jackets for 10 hours, were pulled from the sea.
Roy Nagy, who
was on the ship with his wife Kendra, described the drama on their first night aboard the Royal Caribbean vessel, The Jewel of the Seas.
"We started to go back to sleep, and right after that, we started to hear voices out in the water," Nagy said. "We heard, 'Hey, hey, hey, hey'."
The couple from Massachusetts presumed other passengers had fallen overboard, but saw nothing when they peered out into the darkness, and the cries were fading fast.
