Boat accident / incident

upthesaukee · 10-05-2013, 07:22 PM

Listening to the scanner and heard the Lakes Region dispatcher dispatch Center Harbor and Meredith FD's for a boat in distress in the vicinity of FL5 and One Mile Island.

Report said that the boat had hit a rock(s) and was taking on water. Bilge pump was trying to keep up with the water. I think it said 4 adults, and they did have adequate # of life preservers.

Heard the units say they were enroute, but then switched to a different channel.

No other info available.
