**On February 3 in Zhuhai, Guangdong, Mr He Zhiwei and his yachting club friends set out for a fishing trip. While navigating near Guishan Island, they suddenly spotted two figures desperately waving flags for help on the distant sea horizon. Sensing something was wrong, they looked closer and discovered a fishing boat slowly sinking, with two fishermen already in the water in a life-threatening situation.**

Faced with this sudden emergency, Mr He and his friends acted without hesitation, immediately turning the yacht around and speeding towards the distressed fishermen. Under the skilled manoeuvring of Captain Huang Haitao, the yacht quickly approached the scene. The group worked together to throw life-saving equipment to the fishermen and, in just around ten minutes, successfully rescued both men onto the yacht.

Mr He recalled that the rough waves and low water temperature posed challenges to the rescue effort. The first fisherman was in relatively good condition when pulled aboard, but the second was already showing signs of exhaustion. Fortunately, the yacht was well-equipped with rescue gear, which proved crucial in the operation. After the successful rescue, the fishermen were brought inside to rest and given warm water to recover. Thanks to the swift response, both fishermen regained their strength after resting and were in good health.
