One of the passengers called the port of Corfu to notify the Coast Guard while the boat was sailing about 30 nautical miles west of Paxoi, Corfu island's harbor master Spyridon Kontomaris told Greek national news agency AMNA.
It has not been clarified whether it was a tourist boat or a vessel transferring undocumented migrants or refugees.
