Coast Guard Taking 2nd Look at Arctic Rose Site
The Coast Guard will return to the Bering Sea site of the Arctic Rose sinking in about two weeks for another look at the submerged wreckage, a venture expected to bring the cost of one of the agency’s most expensive investigations to more than $450,000.
The Coast Guard already has spent more than $300,000 investigating the 92-foot vessel’s sinking April 2 with 15 crew members aboard. There were no survivors. Rescuers reached the scene, 775 miles southwest of Anchorage, hours later to find one body, floating survival suits and an oil slick.
