All accounted for!
BOSTON -- The Coast Guard now says two fishermen from Maine who abandoned their vessel after it ran aground off Cape Cod managed to swim to shore.
One of the men, Michael Darragh, was found on Coast Guard Beach in Eastham early Monday morning and taken to a hospital for treatment of severe hypothermia.
Several hours later, Coast Guard spokeswoman Kelly Turner said the second man, Ian Orchard, was found by members of the Eastham fire department in an unused Coast Guard station where he had apparently gone to stay warm. His condition isn't known.
A dog also made it to shore after the accident.
Turner said the Josephine's home port of Stonington, Maine called at about 4:40 a.m. to report that the vessel was taking on water.
