“And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.”
So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink — the second boat (James and John's) is called in as emergency assistance, and both boats are filled to sinking with the catch. The filling and near-sinking of two boats communicates the complete transformation of a failed night into overwhelming abundance — the same nets and the same water have produced the opposite result at the word of Jesus.
