Volare Capsizes Near Alcatraz | Global News

A memorial boat trip near Alcatraz turned deadly as the 50-foot cabin cruiser Volare capsized in rough San Francisco Bay waters. Sixteen people were rescued, but one died and a dog also perished. Three remain missing as search teams, battling cold currents and using thermal imaging and tidal models, expand their efforts into the open ocean west of the Golden Gate Bridge. The boat, which had departed from the St. Francis Yacht Club and stopped at Angel Island, began taking on water before flipping — its engine still running and leaking fuel when responders arrived. Authorities are racing against time to find the missing. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
