That'll be the one from post one. The second one sighted turned out not to be a cayuco at all according to the press, but a fishing boat.

Another was, however, escorted into Gran Canaria at around 9pm last night, though, with 49 on board, five of them in a bad state, two of which needed to be taken to hospital immediately. Five of the 49 are thought to be minors.

Those who are thought to be minors are submitted to an "orthopedic examination" to determine their age ... I have no idea what forms the basis of these tests.
