Ferry ran aground at Larena
Some corals were damaged, when the 'Lite Ferry 10', en route from Tagbilaran City, Bohol to Plaridel, Misamis Occidental via Larena, ran aground in Larena town, Siquijor Province on Oct 25, 2025, short before midnight. 250 passengers were bound for Plaridel, while the others were to disembark in Siquijor. Some passengers have already left for Plaridel, while 45 others remain stranded as they still had cargo on the grounded ship. The Lite Shipping Corp., owner of Lite Ferries, was providing provisions for stranded passengers. The Coast Guard Station Siquijor conducted an underwater assessment by scuba divers, which indicated that certain corals were damaged. No breaches were observed on the vessel’s hull. The Coast Guard had teams on standby, ready to deploy oil spill booms. Attempts to refloat the vessel on Oct 27 at around midnight were unsuccessful. A tug only managed to tow it forward for five to 10 meters. Another attempt was to be made starting on Oct 28 midnight with the high tide. The shipping company has also filed a marine protest with the Maritime Industry Authority regarding the grounding incident, as required by law, Genebleza said. (PNA).

Coast Guard rescued passenger who jumped over board
A passenger of the 'Lite Ferry 10' jumped overboard on Sep 1, 2025, shortly after 5 p.m. in the waters off Cabilao Island in Loon, Bohol. The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) Substation in Loon received a distress call via VHF radio from the ferry, reporting a man-overboard incident. A quick response team was immediately deployed, and by 5:16 p.m., PCG personnel had arrived in Barangay Mocpoc, Loon, where they launched an SAR operation. Coast Guard personnel rescued the victim, a 23 year old resident of Loon, at 5:45 p.m. An initial investigation revealed he was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident. He initially resisted rescue attempts and even refused to take the life rings thrown at him. Despite his resistance, rescuers managed to safely pull him from the water. Following the rescue, he was brought to Barangay Mocpoc and turned over to the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office for medical evaluation by the Rural Health Unit of Loon. By 6:54 p.m., Coast Guard personnel returned to their station.
