A semi-submersible tour boat ran aground on reefs roughly 150 metres off Hongchaikeng fishing port in Pingtung on 26 March, prompting a Coast Guard rescue operation after a second vessel sent to tow it also became trapped. The Coast Guard reported deploying multiple response teams and evacuating all passengers safely to shore. The precise circumstances that led the vessel to approach too close to the reef during low tide have not been officially detailed.
Unresolved: Reports diverge on the number of passengers aboard the stranded vessel, with one account reporting 18 visitors evacuated and another reporting 17 passengers alongside crew members among 22 total people trapped across the two boats.
