A family’s boating trip near Martha’s Vineyard ended in a nail-biting ordeal when their vessel burst into flames, leaving them stranded on Naushon Island. After nearly two days with no word, a washed-up radio alerted the Coast Guard to their plight and led to a dramatic helicopter rescue.

A sudden boat fire on Deep Creek Lake resulted in minor injuries to two individuals, while a third person jumped overboard to escape the flames. The incident occurred Tuesday near the 1700 block of Paradise Point Road in Oakland, Maryland.
