Lt. Diaz clarified that there was no storm signal in Iloilo and Guimaras when the accident happened. The weather was relatively fair, hence they allowed MB Tawash and other pump boats to sail on a reduced capacity.

Further investigation showed that the boat captain, Donald Galotera, did not sign the required master’s declaration of safe departure or MDSD on the on-duty Coast Guard personnel.
