The coast guard has rescued two boaters missing since Saturday.

The boat of the two men broke down near the Bahamas this weekend. They had been fishing with a couple of other boats.

They spent four days floating around in a skiff. The skiff had lifejackets, food and flares.

Finally on Wednesday a helicopter located the men and rescued them near Andros Island.
