MANAMA : At least 53 people died when an overcrowded leisure boat with some 130 passengers on board, including many foreigners, sank off the coast of Bahrain late Thursday, according to Bahrain's security information director Mohammad Ben Dine.
"Up to now we have recovered 53 bodies," Ben Dine told Bahrain television.
He said that passengers of 16 nationalities were on board the pleasure boat when it sank one mile off the coast of Bahrain.
They included 25 British nationals, 20 Filipinos, 10 South Africans, 10 Egyptians and a number of Indians, Americans and Bangladeshis.
The accident happened at about 9:45pm local time (1845 GMT) about one kilometre south of the Sheikh Khalifa bin Salman bridge, which links the capital Manama with the smaller Al-Muharraq island.
Ambulances rushed to the coastal guard base at Muharraq and speed boats were combing the sea looking to rescue passengers.
Bodies wrapped in white sheets were transported on stretchers off the rescue boats.
Prime Minister Sheikh Khalifa bin Salman al-Khalifa was shown on state television comforting distraught survivors brought to the Muharraq base.
US Navy divers were sent to the scene to assist in the search and rescue of survivors, a navy official said.
The navy was using helicopters and small boats to get to the site, he added.
Bahrain is home to the US Navy's Fifth Fleet. It is a "major non-NATO ally" of the United States and has a free trade agreement with Washington.
The monarchy is an archipelago of 35 islands ruled by the Sunni Muslim Al-Khalifa dynasty.
It has 650,000 a population, of whom 450,000 are Bahrainis. - AFP/ch

SINGAPORE'S Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has said that at least four Singaporeans are missing after a tourist boat carrying more than 130 people on a dinner cruise sank off Bahrain on Thursday.
Bahraini coastguard officials said at least 49 people had drowned in the incident.
The MFA said on its website: 'Our Mission in Riyadh has been in touch with their local contacts in Bahrain and confirmed that two Singaporeans have been rescued. They suffered only minor injuries.
'We understand that there are at least four more Singaporeans who are missing.
'Officers from our Mission in Riyadh are on their way to Bahrain to assist the two Singaporeans who have been rescued as well as to work with the Bahrain authorities on those still missing.'
A coastguard spokesman in Bahrain told a news conference that 63 people had been rescued so far. He said most of those on board were Asians, but also included Europeans and Arabs. He later told Al Jazeera television that 49 had died.
TV stations report 56 dead
Arab television stations said more bodies had been found, bringing the death toll to up to 56. But those figures could not be immediately confirmed.
Al Arabiya quoted the boat's owner as saying it may have been overloaded and capsized after many passengers gathered on one side of the vessel.
A survivor told Al Jazeera that the two-storey boat had capsized after apparently hitting a wave as it was turning.
Organisers said around 150 people had signed up for the dinner cruise but around 130 were believed to have been on board when the boat sank at about 9.45pm (2.45am on Friday, Singapore time), around 1.5km off the coast. They said the boat had been hired by a local contracting company for a cruise.
Bahrain's Health Minister Nada Haffadh told Al Jazeera that 30 of the rescued were hospitalised. She said they included 17 Indians, four Britons, two South Africans, two Filipinos, and one each from Italy, China, Thailand and Bahrain.
US Navy helping in rescue efforts
A spokesman for the US Navy's 5th Fleet, based in Bahrain, said 16 Navy divers and a US ship were assisting in rescue efforts. He said the boat had sunk in a harbour close to the shore.
