Bering Sea Skiff Capsizes: One Teen Survives, Two Brothers Die
A 15-year-old boy survived a capsized skiff in the Bering Sea after being stranded for days, while two adult men died. The Coast Guard and local authorities launched a search after the vessel missed its Sunday return window from Savoonga, Alaska. A commercial fishing vessel ultimately rescued the survivor and recovered the bodies of the two deceased men, who were identified as the teen's brother and cousin.
