Jesse G
The 42 foot fishing vessel Jesse G capsized off Cape Beale, Vancouver Island, Canada. The vessel got caught in moderate winds and an opposing tide causing it to capsize. The crew were able to make a distress call before the six persons on board were tossed into the water. The men clung onto the overturn hull awaiting rescue. The Canadian Coast Guard responded within the hour dispatching a rescue boat to the scene. All six men were pulled out of the water safely. One crew reported slight injuries. Authorities later placed booms around the vessel to contain any pollution released.
