Maryland State Police rescued three stranded boaters by helicopter in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on Saturday night.

According to police, a distress call came in just after 9:30 p.m. for two boats that were taking on water near Shady Side. The three passengers of the boats managed to make it to what police called a “marshy shoreline,” but got stranded there and needed to be rescued.

The Anne Arundel County Fire Department requested Maryland State Police send a helicopter unit to find the boaters. With the helicopter crew’s help, an Anne Arundel fire crew was able to find the boaters, but could not get close enough to make a rescue due to shallow water.

The crew of the helicopter installed a hoist system, lifted the boaters into the aircraft and took them to safety.
