Twin Lights

Twin Lights

The 42 foot fishing vessel Twin Lights capsized off Race Point, Cape Cod, Massachusetts.  The vessel was fishing in heavy swells when its gear got caught on the bottom.   The Twin Lights capsized sending its two crew into the water.  The nearby fishing vessel Glutton witnessed the event and responded to the scene.   The Glutton’s crew rescued one man from the water and attempted to find the other missing person.   The Coast Guard was notified and dispatched a rescue helicopter and two cutters to the scene.   The Twin Lights sank just as the Coast Guard reached the scene.   A search for the missing man continued into the night.   The Twin Lights now rests in 190 feet of water.
