October 28, 2024 – San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office officials report that on Thursday, their team responded to a call about an overturned sailboat spotted off the coast of Cayucos. Morro Bay Harbor Patrol, the Coast Guard, CHP, State Parks, and deputies worked together to locate the boat and ensure no one was in danger.

To closely inspect and identify the vessel, our Dive Team was called in. With assistance from CHP’s helicopter, H-70, our divers helocasted into the water and examined the boat, while coordinated efforts continued from shore, air, and water.

After an extensive search, no victims or identifying information were found. Big thanks to all the responding agencies for their teamwork on this mission.
