An MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew, from Coast Guard Air Station Astoria, hoists a 67-year-old mariner from his 17-foot yacht tender after his yacht collided with an unknown object and sank 9 miles off Leadbetter Point State Park, Wash., July 28, 2017.
The mariner abandoned ship into his yacht tender, shortly after which he lost sight of the lights of his 45-foot pleasure yacht Sea Crest and heard sounds that indicated the vessel might have sunk.
