CAPE MAY, N.J. -- The Coast Guard rescued three men Thursday from their life raft near Cape May, New Jersey.

The Coast Guard received a request for assistance from the captain aboard the 42-foot boat Last Stand, reporting they were sinking following a collision with the 78-foot tugboat.

The three person crew had to jump ship.

Luckily, they had enough time to put on survival suits and launch their life raft.

The Coast Guard then pulled them safely aboard.

None of the men were hurt.
