Two New Jersey boaters and a pet dog were rescued by the U.S. Coast Guard off the Delaware coast after they were missing for 10 days.
CAPE MAY, N.J. — Two boaters who went missing while sailing from New Jersey to Florida have been found after a search of more than 21,000 square miles, the U.S. Coast Guard says.
The men had been reported missing on Sunday after Coast Guard officials were notified the boaters were overdue, prompting a massive search by military, commercial and recreational vessels. Hyde and Ditomasso waved their arms and a flag to get the attention of crew members on a passing tanker, the Silver Muna, the Coast Guard said.
