The Coast Guard said three people had escaped the boat while the fourth had to be rescued from an air pocket under the hull.

"Station Erie arrived on scene and rescued 3 of the survivors with the 4th still trapped under the hull. The helicopter crew acted swiftly and deployed the rescue swimmer to safely extract the survivor who was found alive in an air pocket under the vessel," the Coast Guard said in the post.
