A disabled 93-foot crab fishing boat being towed across the Bering Sea suddenly sank Tuesday with three crewmen aboard, the Coast Guard said.

The Coast Guard and six fishing vessels searched an area about 90 miles north of Dutch Harbor for survivors, Lt. Ed Wieliczkiewicz said. The Jamie Lynn, beached in the Pribilof Islands since a storm last November, was being towed to Dutch Harbor.
