Not much from the News other that it happened and 3 were rescued. A separate source says it was the Emily Ann and she went down near Finn’s Ledge. I hope everyone made it off.

I can confirm Emily Anne, a pilot boat got the guys. Got a text from a friend who was nearby who heard it happening and I put on the VHF at home to listen in.
