3 Port Orange boaters rescued by Coast Guard The U.S. Coast Guard rescued three Port Orange residents Saturday morning after heavy winds caused their boat to capsize on the Intracoastal Waterway in Daytona Beach. A good Samaritan spotted the three men at about 9:50 a.m. in the water near the 3000 block of Peninsula Drive, according to a Coast Guard news release and a Volusia County Sheriffs Office dispatcher. The rescued men, who were not wearing life jackets, were identified. They were piloting a 16-foot Mitzi Skiff flats boat, the release said. An emergency dispatcher alerted the Coast Guard, which sent a rescue crew from its station at Ponce Inlet. The men reportedly suffered "slight hypothermic symptoms" and were taken ashore and treated by emergency medical workers, according to the release. Â—.Staff Report
