Actually, even if it wasn't substantial, Kawabata would be the one calling the police, because he would be the first one to see the damage, whatever the real extent of it is, and the guy with the working radio -- he would be arriving as soon as weather permits to retrieve all the busy company presidents for whom Monday 6th is a work day. The moment he calls the police is only different by a few hours depending on the extent of the damage, that is, from how far can he see it and whether he needs to disembark to see it.
Now, once it's clear there are no survivors, the only one who can remember Kuwadorian exists and may contain someone is once again Kawabata. Interestingly, he still says he has never seen Kuwadorian, even though he would be the one shuttling a team to the second port, as the only man present who knows where it is.
Why didn't he go with them?...
