BOCA GRANDE, Fla. — Video shows the Coast Guard rescuing two boaters after their boat was disabled and adrift close to Boca Grande.
The Coast Guard said it located the missing boaters Sunday morning 73 miles off Boca Grande in Lee County. A friend of the boaters contacted the Coast Guard on Saturday around 5 p.m. after they did not check in while sailing from Key West to Tarpon Springs.

Neither person was injured, according to officials.
