A 77-foot fishing boat went aground late last night just off Kodiak City. According to an eye-witness, the boat grounded about 100 feet from shore, not far from Jackson’s Trailer Court.
Coast Guard spokesman Jonathan Lally in Kodiak says the fishing vessel Katherine went aground with six people on board, but was not in distress. A Good Samaritan vessel towed it from the reef just after 4 this morning, and escorted the Katherine as it made its way back to Kodiak harbor under its own power.
