<p>The U.S. Coast Guard rescued three people, including an 8-year-old child, from a life raft after their sailing vessel became partially submerged near Plana Cays, Bahamas, the Guard said in a June 30 statement.</p>
<p>Video shows the Guardsmen of the Air Station Clearwater MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter aircrew reach the family at around 7 a.m. June 30 after a Good Samaritan called the Guard around midnight.</p>
<p>The Guard said that no injuries were reported and that the family had been taken to Bahamian authorities in Great Inagua. The owner of the boat is coordinating the vessel's recovery with commercial salvage, according to the statement.</p>
<p>"Our aircrews train very hard for moments like this, and we are thankful to have played a role in the safe rescue of this family," Lt. Andrew Boyle, a Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater Jayhawk aircraft commander, said in the statement.</p>
<p>Boyle urged mariners to keep a radio and an emergency distress beacon when on the water saying, "it could help save their lives."</p>
