At 8:20 a.m. on Monday, May 29, the U.S. Coast Guard rescued three boaters celebrating Memorial Day from the ocean water off the coast of Seven Devils State Recreation Site.
The 17-foot fishing boat sank after being hit by waves, leaving its crew members stranded in water that was 50 degrees for 33 minutes before USCG crews arrived. A USCG boat team rescued people in peril using their cell phones to pinpoint their location.
U.S. Coast Guard Pacific Northwest Tweeted, “The individuals were found in the water wearing life jackets.”
We are thankful that these individuals are alive and wearing life jackets. Please remember to be safe today and we wish a speedy recovery for the three!
