Default Sailing vessel Cambio (sp?)

Am hearing comms at 0226 utc b/w Camslant and sailing vessel Cambio on
2182 khz. They're talking about a vessel in distress, which may be
Cambio itself. White flares have been fired. Camslant said they'd try
to contact Cambio again at 0245.

Cambio isn't the vessel in distress. Rather, it sighted the vessel in
distress but it's still unclear what the name of the affected vessel
is, though the Coast Guard does have its approximate location and is
on its way there.

Camslant was also communicating with a vessel named "Cherub Cloud",
which also sighted the distress flares.
