Captain Saves Three from Sinking Boat | Detroit News

Three fishermen in a sinking bass boat on Lake St. Clair were rescued by Captain Zach Gaza, who spotted them waving for help and pulled them aboard his vessel just as their 17-foot fiberglass boat was taking on water fast. Despite prior experience with rough conditions, Gaza stressed that human safety always comes first — even over catching fish. The capsized boat was later salvaged by a tow boat, and everyone emerged unharmed. This near-disaster serves as a powerful reminder: weather can change quickly on the water — stay prepared and watch out for each other.
