MANGALURU: One moment, 40-year-old Nagarajan was sitting by himself on a deep sea trawler boat that was returning to the shore after fishing. Undeterred, Nagarajan kept swimming and around 6pm, saw a merchant vessel passing the shipping lanes off the west coast. And that he was fine despite spending over seven hours in the sea. "Nagarajan told me that some of the boats returned after one-and-a-half hours with a hope to find him. The next moment, he was floating in the sea off the Kudla coast , the water carrying away his unmoving body far away from his boat and his colleagues.
