18 seacraft - rescue in Vineyard Sound.

[FishStretcher]

I heard most of this on the VHF if this was the gentleman in Quicks Hole. He called it a 19.
It would seem that on July 3, Quicks should have been a parking lot. Full of boats.

But he was not giving out any helpful information for quite a long time. Nor listening to direction from the USCG. It was extremely frustrating to listen to.

Example: a request for a location was answered as "near that island by the sailboats". This sort of thing went on for a while.

I ran out of VHF range as the Coast Guard finally managed to get a location out of him. I suspect just standing, waving arms and yelling would have worked well. Or a flare or horn.

Glad they are OK.
