This was the heart-stopping moment two men had to be rescued after their boat capsized in the Boynton Inlet in Palm Beach.

The clip filmed July 5, shows the moment passersby rescue two men who had fallen into the water with no safety gear after their boat sank.

The filmer, Miranda told Newsflare: “Their motor quit running so they were just drifting through the inlet when the other boats tried to help them, they didn’t intentionally go through the inlet. They were fishing the Intracoastal when their motor died and then drifted into the inlet.”

The current of the Boynton Inlet in Florida is known for being rough and strong and is incredibly dangerous for small vessels to travel through.

“As they were drifting outwards towards the sea, multiple vessels tried to pull them in as this inlet is very dangerous for such a small vessel and could have been catastrophic.”

Both men made it out of the water and were okay, it is unknown whether or not the sunken vessel has been retrieved.

2 men were fishing the intracoastal, near the Boynton Inlet in Palm Beach County, FL when their motor wouldn't start. The strong current of the Boynton Inlet pulled them into the rough inlet. As they were drifting outwards towards sea, multiple vessels tried to pull them in as this inlet is very dangerous for such a small vessel and could have been catastrophic. While being towed back towards the intracoastal, the small vessel took waves over the bow and sank. They people on both vessels had very little time to react and tie up as the small was drifting quickly into rocks, which caused them to tie the boat incorrectly, leading to it sinking. The towing vessel did everything they could in a tough situation with very little time to react. Both men made it out of the water and were okay. It is unknown whether or not the sunken vessel was retrieved.
