The people on board were migrants trying to reach Europe and the accident happened on New Year's Eve. Since then, 102 survivors have been found and rescued, according to Gambian authorities.
Seven dead bodies have been recovered. The remaining people - dozens or as many as a hundred - are missing.
Thousands of Africans are still trying to reach Europe and better living conditions, but since surveillance has been tightened in the Mediterranean, more and more are heading out into the Atlantic, mainly hoping to reach the Spanish Canary Islands.
