At about 20:30 GST on January 20th, two crab hunters on a cliff-line ledge at Marine Beach on Saipan were swept into the open ocean by a large wave. One of the men sustained minor injuries but was able to get to shore. The other man, who was from Palau, never returned to shore and is presumed dead.
