The helicopter crew from San Diego were the first to spot the disabled boat 18 miles west of Redondo Beach and radioed the location to the smaller rescue boat, Brahm said. With the help of Baywatch Redondo, the Coast Guard’s small boat rescue crew transferred all aboard the disabled boat to safety.
