A boat was found drifting about a mile off Grand Turk island with 20 dead people on board, including two children, authorities in the Turks and Caicos Islands said Sunday.
Officials said investigators had ruled out foul play but were still trying to determine what happened. The identities and origin of the dead were also under investigation.
Fishermen spotted the small boat Thursday morning and alerted the marine branch of the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force, who towed the vessel ashore.

Sounds like their NGO ‘rescue’ boat didn’t arrive as scheduled.

Because you can’t drink seawater?You could. But it wouldn't go over well without proper desalination.

From the article ...
The Turks and Caicos are often a magnet for desperate Haitians seeking to flee that poverty-stricken nation and the territory also has been used as a transshipment point by human traffickers.

I figured Cuba because they were all dead so it must have drifted for awhile.
