Photo: Town of Smithtown. Six boaters found themselves in trouble on Tuesday night when their vessel was pushed onto the rocks by heavy sea and wind in Smithtown Bay. Smithtown Bay Constables responded to a distress call off the coast of Crane’s Neck and found the 18-foot boat was taking on water. Smithtown Bay Constables Daniel Shannon, David Rosenberg and Sergeant Scott Roberts were able to navigate the rocky waters and extract the passengers from the disabled vessel onto their patrol boat. The Suffolk County Police Department Marine Bureau and Aviation Units also responded to the call.
