(Southwest Michigan) - Thursday was a busy day for first responders and some Good Samaritans in lake waters of southwest Michigan.

On Thursday afternoon, the Benton Harbor Department of Public Safety responded to a distress call just over half a mile off shore. A rescue boat arrived to find an adult and a child stranded on a catamaran with no sail, but no injuries. First responders towed the vessel to safety.

Later that evening, just up the shore in South Haven, a Zodiac inflatable boat capsized. The two occupants, who were wearing life jackets, clung to the overturned boat’s hull. According to South Haven Emergency Services, others boaters and some surfers in the area came to their rescue. A water rescue drone was also dispatched to assist.
