US Coast Guard Assists Boat in Mexican Waters

The US Coast Guard on May 21 assisted a mariner aboard a 17-foot aluminum boat located 12 miles south of Point Loma, California, which is in Mexican waters. The vessel had begun to take on water when the boater issued a distress call just after 9 a.m. The Coast Guard dispatched an 87-foot vessel and an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter to assist.
