Three men were rescued from cold, stormy Pacific Ocean waters by a fishing boat crew less than 10 minutes after they fell overboard from another vessel, the U.S. Coast Guard said. The men were in good condition after spending 5 to 8 minutes in the water about 10 miles southeast of Pillar Point near Half Moon Bay south of San Francisco, Petty Officer Eileen Metzler said. The crew aboard the Huck Finn II rescued the men, who were wearing life preservers and clinging to the hull of their 19-foot boat, she said.
