JUNEAU, Alaska (Nov. 24, 2007) The Coast Guard and Juneau Police Department recovered a recreational vessel in the Gastineau Channel that had reportedly been stolen earlier today.

When the Coast Guard motor life boat from Station Juneau arrived on scene a man on board told them that the vessel belonged to him, but could not produce any paperwork demonstrating that.
The Coast Guard boarding team took the man into custody and brought him to shore, where custody was transfered to the Juneau Police Department.
