JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) -- A crowded Indonesian ferry broke apart and sank

in the Java Sea during a violent storm that sent towering waves over its

deck, and the vast majority of the 600 passengers were still missing a day

later, officials said Saturday.

Raging seas have hampered rescue efforts and about 14 hours after the

disaster, just 66 survivors had been found, many drifting in lifeboats,

officials said. No bodies had been found, leaving more than 500 passengers

unaccounted for.

"We all just prayed as the waves got higher," said Cholid, a passenger who

survived by clinging to some wooden planks but who lost his 18-year-old

daughter.

People fought over lifejackets as the boat capsized, sending cars crashing

into one another in the cargo hold, he said.

"I was going upstairs to try to help my daughter, but the ship suddenly

broke up and I was thrown out. I lost her," said Cholid, who like many

Indonesians uses one name.

Waves of up to 16 feet crashed over the deck of the ship around midnight

Friday during the final leg of a 48-hour journey from the island of Borneo

to the main island of Java, said Slamet Bustam, an official at Semarang

port, the ferry's destination, where hundreds of distraught relatives and

friends waited for news about their loved ones.

"We're afraid many have died," Bustam said.

Two naval ships were searching the area, but poor visibility was hindering

their search.

Authorities struggled to come up with an accurate number of those on board.

Earlier, Bustam said there 850 passengers, but later lowered the number to

600. Local media said that between 500 and 800 were on board.

Transport Minister Hatta Radjasa put the number of passengers at 542, citing

the passenger manifest. Ships in Indonesia, however, often carry far more

passengers than recorded, making it hard for authorities to say with

accuracy how many people were on board.

In a final radio contact, the captain informed port authorities that the

ship was severely damaged and capsizing, said local navy commander Col. Yan

Simamora.

Worried family members gathered at the main office of ferry operator PT

Prima Fista, weeping and demanding details about the fate of their loved

ones.

"I am waiting for my mother, auntie, sister and nephew who were on their way

to celebrate New Year's Eve at my house," said Yulis, 25.

The ferry ran into trouble 24 miles off Mandalika island, some 190 miles

northeast of the capital, Jakarta, while en route to Semarang on Central

Java from the port of Kumai on Borneo island.

Seasonal storms have wreaked havoc across Indonesia in recent days,

unleashing flash floods and landslides that have killed more than 145 people

and driven hundreds of thousands from their homes on Sumatra.

Earlier Friday, a different vessel carrying around 100 people capsized in

bad weather off the coast of northwestern Sumatra, killing three and leaving

26 missing, Radjasa said.

Ferries are a main source of transportation in Indonesia, a vast archipelago

of more than 17,000 islands with a population of 220 million.

Just more evidence that no gods take care of us!
