KINGSTON, Wash. - Two people were rescued and are home safe after falling from a disabled sailboat in the water near Kingston, Washington.
According to North Kitsap Fire & Rescue, the boat became disabled out in the water. Crew members from Washington State Ferries quickly launched a rescue boat to pull both people out of the water, then towed their sailboat back to the dock.
Rescuers say the two seemed alert and in good condition.
North Kitsap Fire & Rescue reminds people that Puget Sound is frigid, and can shock even the best swimmer while they try to stay afloat. They urge anyone who goes out in the water to wear a life jacket.
