Overview

• The 27-year-old was located on the third day of searching by the Sasemar 103 plane roughly southwest of Arguineguín, with reports citing about 18 kilometers or 15 nautical miles offshore.
• Friends reported him missing around 23:00 on Monday after a jet ski detached from their boat near Juan Grande and he entered the water to recover it.
• The Guardia Civil led a multi-agency operation with sea, land, and air assets until the sighting and subsequent recovery.
• Rescuers said he was conscious but dehydrated, with sunburn and mild chest pain from hours lying on the craft, before being brought ashore by midday Wednesday.
• Accounts from family and media indicate the jet ski likely suffered a power failure in the dark, though no official cause has been announced.
