BEING lost at sea is a fisherman's worst nightmare.

For Indira "Sandra" Surkumar, wife of Tobago fisherman Albert James, the pain and uncertainty of her husband missing for four days alongside his colleague Junior Thorne, was harrowing.

Both men went to set fish pots in James's boat on February 11 off Pigeon Point, around 6 am, but failed to return home. Newsday understands that there was a problem with the engine which left the men stranded at sea. They reportedly tied the boat to the fish pots which were anchored, and prayed that they would be found.
