Small Boat Sinks off Ft. Lauderdale
Crew Assists in Lifesaving Efforts

Captain Domenic Keenan of TowBoatU.S. Ft. Lauderdale arrived 1st on the scene after a small recreational fishing boat capsized and sank, leaving 6 men swimming at night in need of rescue. He was backed up shortly thereafter by Captain Cole Sisler. Keenan located and rescued several of the men with the assistance of several other agencies. Included were the City of Ft. Lauderdale Police, Fire Rescue, U.S. Coast Guard small boat crew and the Broward Sheriff Office’s helicopter using thermal imaging cameras and spotlights. The Crew from Ft. Lauderdale Fire Rescue commended Keenan on his willingness to help and how prompt and effective his assistance was!

Thanks Domenic and Cole...You guys made a difference that night!
