He will always remember New Year's Day, 1968, when the wind and rain rose up, and a freighter struck a reef in the vicinity of the lighthouse. The hull of the ship was badly tilted, with its stern sinking into the ocean. As the crew pushed and shoved to get to the bows, some of them, with no place to stand, fell into the sea.
他永遠記得一九六八年元旦，風雨交加，一艘貨輪在燈塔附近觸礁，船身嚴重傾斜，船尾沒入海中，船員推擠著湧向船首，部分船員因無立足之地而落海。
