Four Canadian sailors were plucked from an overturned catamaran by members of the U.S. Coast Guard in a daring helicopter rescue caught on camera. The Moon Dragon, a 60-foot charter yacht that sails between the Mid-Atlantic and Virgin Islands, capsized about 140 feet offshore from Wilmington, North Carolina, on Saturday afternoon, per the agency. None of the extracted passengers were injured, the agency said a day after the incident.
GROUNDSKEEPER MOWED AROUND DEAD MAN'S BODY THINKING IT WAS HALLOWEEN PROP, FAMILY CLAIMS A Coast Guard helicopter and airplane from Air Station Elizabeth City crew raced to the scene after they got an electronic position-indicating radio beacon from the sailors on the catamaran, the agency wrote. Functional life vests onboard also contributed to their quick rescue.
