The 98 meter long dredge Oceanline 208 capsized off Pengerang, Malaysia.  The Oceanline 208 was carrying sand from Teluk Ramunia when it capsized after struck by large waves during the early morning hours.  One of the 15 crew on board was rescued by a passing vessel and alerted authorities of the incident. Authorities responded to the scene with multiple vessels with 10 divers on standby. The rescue vessels towed the Oceanline 208 to Tanjung Punga so that divers could conduct a search inside the overturn vessel for the missing crew. After searching the vessel, the efforts were suspended with no additional survivors found.
