(KRON) — Nine people were rescued from a sinking boat in San Francisco Bay Saturday afternoon.
The San Francisco Fire Department responded to a distress call for the sinking boat near Marina Green at 2 p.m. The boat’s eight crew members were rescued first while the captain held his post, SFFD said.
The boat is owned by the youth organization Sea Scout Ship Viking, a sailing and scouting club for high school girls in San Francisco. SFFD has not yet confirmed if any of the passengers were high school girls.
No one was injured during the incident. The group was rescued within an hour, SFFD said…
