BISCAYNE BAY June 2014


Biscayne Bay Pilots found themselves
in the right place at the right time
while awaiting a ships approach at
approximately 0130 on June 7, 2014.
En route to board a ship, Captain
Bronson Stubbs noticed a signal of
red flares coming from a capsizing
recreational craft near the Miami Sea
Buoy. After the pilot boat operator
skillfully maneuvered over to the area, Captain Stubbs was able to rescue
the three people, who had not been wearing life jackets, out of the water
and into the pilot boat. About 15 minutes after the pilots retrieved the
three people from the water using life rings, the U.S. Coast Guard arrived
to transfer them.
