EMERALD ISLE, N.C. — Coast Guard helicopter crews have been busy along the North Carolina coast during the weekend, rescuing boaters in shallow water and two men and a dog who were lost.
The Coast Guard said five people were hoisted into a helicopter about 2 a.m. Sunday. Their pleasure boat had become disabled in shallow water and surf at Bogue Inlet and they made a radio call for help.
A rescue chopper also found two men and the dog Saturday in Core Sound. The Coast Guard says the men left shore in Carteret County in a 17-foot boat Friday morning for a fishing trip. One man's wife called for help that night when they didn't return. |
