18 Rescued After Boat Capsizes in South San Francisco Bay

A coordinated effort by local agencies ensured all passengers were safely recovered without injuries after a rowing club boat overturned.

A 14-foot boat carrying 18 people capsized in the Oyster Point Channel of South San Francisco Bay early Saturday morning after being hit by a wave.
The U.S. Coast Guard received a mayday call at 8:40 a.m., prompting a swift rescue operation involving multiple local agencies.
Fifteen individuals were rescued by the Oyster Point Challenger vessel, while the Brisbane harbormaster and police recovered the remaining three passengers.
All 18 individuals were returned to the Oyster Point Marina, evaluated, and found to have no medical concerns.
This incident is part of a recent series of boat capsizes in the Bay Area, though it is the only one without reported injuries or fatalities.
