A crew from Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City, Mich., hoists a man and his dog after the man's sailboat lost power and ran aground near Sand Island,Wis., in Lake Superior, Oct. 6, 2015.

The aircrew hoisted the man and his dog due to the shallowness of the water depth prohibiting the Coast Guard 45-foot response boat to safely reach them.
