A Coast Guard Air Station Borinquen MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew rescued two kayakers Dec. 1, 2019, in waters just off Ocean Park Beach in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The two men rescued were tourists from the United States, who relayed a distress call to 911 by using the SOS feature on a smartwatch, reporting they had been in the water for several hours without lifejackets after their kayaks took on water and sank.
