Desperate search launched for influencer, 37, and boyfriend, 27, who posed for photos on a party yacht hours before the speedboat capsized and sank in rough seas on the ‘Devil’s Throat’ coastline

A Brazilian influencer and her friend are missing at sea after a speedboat carried them back to shore on Sunday from a luxury yacht that capsized off the coast of Sao Vicente.

Police confirmed that Aline Tamara Moreira, 37, and Beatriz Tavares da Silva Faria, 27, were on board a speedboat when the accident happened while they were desperately searching for the two women who disappeared in a coastal area known as the Devil’s Throat .

Just before the tragedy struck, influencer Aline had posted photos of herself on the luxury yacht alongside her friends.

One image shows Aline, dressed in blue, on the boat looking at the camera while holding a drink. Another photo shows the influencer with two female friends.

According to her brother Anderson Carlos Moreira de Amorim, Aline cannot swim.

Aline reportedly has a 17-year-old son

Survivors said they were at a party on a larger yacht and when they decided to leave, six of them used a speedboat that capsized after it went to pick them up.

Five people, two men and three women, were rescued and given medical attention.

They had injuries caused by the collision with parts of the ship and rocks in the region.

The city of Sao Vicente said in a statement that the Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU) had been called to respond to the incident.

After initial care, four of the rescued were taken to the central emergency room, while one refused further medical attention. At the health department, the remaining four were given medication and discharged from the hospital.

Nilce Aparecida Silva, a resident of Praia Grande, is a cousin of missing woman Beatriz and she took to Facebook to ask for prayers so that she could be found alive.

She said: ‘Bia is not only a cousin, but also my granddaughter’s godmother. She loved the sea and whenever she came to the coast she always found a way to stop by our house. We pray she will be found alive.”

After the search, Nilce made her home available to other Beatriz family members. According to her, Beatriz lived in the eastern zone of Sao Paulo.

A survivor Camila Alves, 20, took to social media to give details about the accident.

‘During the trip, a very strong wave caused the boat to capsize on top of us. We saw three life jackets and two liters of gasoline. They all took one and tried to fight for their lives,” she recalls.

‘None of the girls could swim. Everyone started getting lost and trying to save themselves,” adding that “people were seriously injured in the accident. I hit my head on the rock and got stitched up. Everyone was really hurt.”

She also called on the public to “pray for the girls so that they may be found alive and well.”

The ‘Devil’s Throat’, the region where the accident occurred, is located between Porchat Island and Xixova-Japui State Park, in Sao Vicente. It attracts surfers because of its waves, but hides several dangers because of the strong currents that hit the area.

It comes as Brazilian OnlyFans model Adriana Vieira, 31, was found dead in a Florida port last week after partying on a rapper’s yacht.

The mother of one reportedly went swimming the night before she was found in the Port of Miami.

The name of the rapper who organized the party has not been released.

Vieira, originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil, reportedly arrived in Florida with her husband two years ago and posted photos of their lavish lifestyle on social media.

Her husband, named Roberto Tesario, returned to Brazil shortly after leaving Adriana to raise their child alone.

Her mother Antonia de Lourdes Vieira told Brazilian media: “I want my daughter’s death to be investigated and I need help to bring her body back.

“I don’t know how long I have before she’s buried in a pauper’s grave.”

Vieira’s six-year-old son is reportedly being cared for by a nanny while her family travels to the US.
