U.S. Coast Guard have suspend the search of the missing ship, the 735ft (224cm) cargo vessel has been missing since they made the distress call on Thursday.
The guard have found some debris including life jackets, oil water, containers, and only one body has been found out of 33 people who were working in the ship. It's still not known yet why the captain decided to lead the ship into hurricane Joaquin.
"We were very saddened to learn that no survivors have been found," said Bella Dinh-Zarr, vice chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board.
"They did all they could in this search effort... our crews and aircrafts flew repeatedly into that storm," Coast Guard Captain Mark Fedor said on Wednesday.
The ship made its trips from Florida to Puerto Rico and it was taking water which led to its engine to fail, power shortage and hence it sanked.
May the souls of all the victims Rest In Peace!
