The 46 foot long fishing vessel Hornet became disabled off the entrance to the Columbia River, Washington.  The Hornet had lost power and was taking on water in 4 meter seas and 25 mph winds.  The crew sent out a mayday with two USCG lifeboats from Cape Disappointment, a Jayhawk helicopter from Astoria and a nearby fishing vessel responding to the scene.  The rescue vessels arrived within half an hour.  The 47 foot lifeboat took the Hornet under tow while assisting the crew with a dewatering pump.  The vessels proceeded to Ilwaco, Washington.  Two crew of the Hornet sustained minor injuries, but did not require medical attention.  No reports of pollution released.  The Coast Guard has launched an investigation into the incident.
