(NewsNation) — The family of an Alaskan boy who survived four days at sea wants the world to know what they say kept him alive: prayer.
Fifteen-year-old Parker of Savoonga, Alaska set out with his older brother Sidney Kulowiyi, 35, and their cousin, Barton Rookok, 34, to fish for halibut on September 4, according to Anchorage Daily News. They planned on returning in the early hours of September 6. When they didn't return, search and rescue efforts were launched.

On Monday, around 10:30am, the Coast Guard spotted Parker around 10:30 a.m. on top of the capsized vessel in the Bering Sea and asked another boat to pick him up.
According to Alaska's News Source, their 18-foot skiff capsized after a fishing line got tangled in the motor. The boy's older brother Sidney reportedly got caught in the line and was pulled under the ship.
