The Morro Bay Fire Department, Morro Bay Harbor Department, Morro Bay Police Department, Coast Guard, and State Parks officials responded to the scene.

Rescuers found the second occupant floating in the water and performed CPR before transporting the victim to a local hospital.

Very difficult coming and going in this harbor. Even the huge fishing boats have trouble. Wonder why they don’t fix this problem. I am afraid to go out in the ocean this way. God Bless
