The two characters each wonder how the other is doing.
Their mutual uncertainty keeps the reader anxious about both characters’ fates; not knowing whether the other survived prolongs tension. (The distant setting and the wave add danger, and the fishing-boat rescue would end the suspense rather than create it.)
