Sunken Boat Located; Crew of 4 Still Missing
January 29, 2007
BOSTON (AP) — The Coast Guard said Sunday it discovered a fishing vessel missing since Friday night submerged 36 feet in Nantucket Sound. All four crew members were still missing.
Coast Guard rescuers said it appeared unlikely the crew would be found alive in the frigid waters. The vessel’s lone life raft was found attached to the boat. Still, two Coast Guard cutters continued searching overnight, using massive search lights and a grid system to scan the ocean surface.
The 75-foot Lady of Grace was last heard from Friday night and was supposed to return to New Bedford Harbor early Saturday.
