The Dominican Armada has rescued three Americans who were adrift on board a US-registered 30-foot sailboat, the “Crew Two”. The boat had mechanical problems when sailing from Puerto Rico to the United States and the ship was caught in the high seas caused by Tropical Storm Isaac. The rescue was carried out by the Dominican coast guard “Capella” boat. The sailboat was towed to dock in Juanillo, Punta Cana.
The two men and a woman were in good health and were met in Punta Cana by Dominican naval personnel together with intelligence and government security personnel. The boat’s passengers were named as Frredom Oxford, Bebbie Lee Oxford and Icaiha Shano Oxford in Hoy and were reportedly rescued 30 nautical miles to the northwest of Cabo Engaño by the Capella GC-108 that patrols the eastern region coast.
