"It was the "Guardian" to the rescue once again Wednesday as the crew saved
three fishermen off the coast of Cedar Key. "

"The men who were rescued were Kevin Ohmer, 40, and Jason Burgos, 29, of
Ohio, and Keith Adams, 68, of Kentucky. "

"Apparently the men were fishing from their 21-foot center-console boat when
the vessel took on water over the transom and began to sink. They were able
to get only one radio transmission out," Mazzeo said.

"According to Mazzeo, the sea conditions were about 3 to 4 feet with an east
wind of about 10-15 knots."

"The men were fishing while drifting and were not at anchor. The vessel's
engine wasn't running and the boat took on too much water over the *low*
transom. The vessel is currently adrift and a notice to mariners was
issued," Mazzeo said.
