Summary

A wild Wednesday on Lake Huron turned into a high-stakes rescue when four people—including a sailboat crew, a kayaker, and a paddle boarder—got caught in 29-mph winds and five-foot waves. Michigan DNR officers braved the choppy waters to save two men from the capsized sailboat, then pulled a kayaker—who’d paddled out to help and was knocked out by a wave without a life jacket—back to safety. Everyone made it home unharmed, but the incident serves as a stark reminder: always check the weather and wear safety gear on the Great Lakes.
