DUXBURY, Mass. — Two brothers were rescued from the water in Duxbury when their boat capsized Monday afternoon.
The pair was taking a dinghy to their sailboat when it capsized in the windy, choppy waters.
A man on shore saw them stranded in the water and tried to swim to them to help, but he was overcome by the current.
The harbormaster was then called in to rescue all three of them from the water.
"Just goes to show you the power of the ocean," Amy MacDonald said. She called 911 when he saw the brothers in the water.
