OCEAN CITY – Coast Guard rescued three people who fell from their paddle boards and became stuck in a marsh near Ocean City Aug. 2.
According to a release, Coast Guard was notified by Ocean City Police Department of the three people in distress and launched a 29-foot Response Boat-Small rescue crew from Station Ocean City at 10:45 a.m.
The rescue boat crew arrived on scene shortly after notification took the three people and their paddle boards safely to the 10th Street pier in Ocean City.
“Communications are key whether you are on a paddle board or a power boat,” stated Lt.
