Boat Capsizes Near Alcatraz | Irvine News
Description
A San Francisco Bay memorial turned nightmare when a three-story boat capsized near Alcatraz, killing one and leaving three missing. The Coast Guard now conducts a massive recovery effort across an area larger than Yosemite, suspecting victims may still be trapped inside the sunken vessel. Private boaters stepped in as heroes, rescuing 16 amid violent seas. The victim, 79-year-old Clifford Boisa, was among those who didn’t make it. Life jackets were on board—but not everyone wore them. The boat, from Stockton, was struck by a rogue wave after leaving Angel Island, in treacherous waters notorious for sudden storms and unpredictable tides. The tragedy has shaken the local boating community, reminding all that even the most experienced sailors can be caught off guard.
