Crews rescued four people during the early morning hours of May 15 after their boat capsized in the waters near the Jupiter Lighthouse, the U.S. Coast Guard reports.
The agency said a boat crew from Coast Guard Station Lake Worth Inlet safely carried two mariners to shore for medical evaluation. The Jupiter Police Department and a Good Samaritan helped two others return safely.
The owner of the vessel will coordinate the recovery of the craft with a friend, the Coast Guard said. No details on the boat or how it capsized were immediately available.
