Coast Guard tows in damaged boat

Local United States Coast Guard members continue to be busy this summer as they responded to another disabled boat on Wednesday. Crew members were dispatched to Cabot Point near Sawyer Harbor where they found a boat stuck on some rocks. After further review, it was found that the boat suffered severe damage to its lower unit, preventing the vessel’s owner from being able to move it under its own power. Crew members were able to tow the disabled boat and its lone person on board to Rock Quarry. This is the third time in the last week the United States Coast Guard had to respond to vessels that became aground after responding to calls near Horseshoe Bay and Pirate Island over the weekend.
