MOSS LANDING, Calif. – A man stranded in his small fishing boat near Moss Landing was rescued Monday evening.
North County fire, Monterey fire, the U.S. Coast Guard and state parks all responded to a distress call that went out when a man became stranded 1,500 yards offshore when his motor stopped running.
Fire officials first thought the man’s boat had caught fire, but it turned out the boater had sent up three flares and dropped anchor.
