“There are people in the water, drowning, getting sucked out the rip current there,” he said, adding that the boat, described as a 40-foot cabin cruiser, had basically broken apart.
On Monday, after calling off a search for more potential victims, the U.S. Coast Guard updated its count to show 32 people had been accounted for, with 29 people found alive and three declared dead either at the scene or local hospitals. One person remained in critical condition.
The boat did not have a manifest so it was not at first clear everyone on board was accounted for, investigators said. “After careful consideration using the information from our on-scene crews, partner agency input and the magnitude of the response efforts, the Coast Guard suspended our search on Monday morning,” said Captain Timothy Barelli, the Sector San Diego commander.
