One man is uninjured after his boat capsized off the coast of Victoria at Ogden Point this morning when he was rescued by a passing boat.
Five local men chartered a fishing boat for a bachelor party and were surprised to find the boat in trouble at the mouth of Victoria Harbour, and went over to help. They pulled him out of the water before the Coast Guard arrived.
One of the party-goers, Andrew Johns, said the man, around 50 years old, wasn91裸聊视频檛 wearing a lifejacket.
