February 25, 2025 [VCS]: A man was rescued after his boat ran aground on the shores of Anacapa Island Friday. Shortly before 4:40 p.m. the U.S. Coast Guard's Channel Islands station responded to a report of a boat on the shore of Anacapa, one of the five islands that comprise the Channel Islands National Park, according to a post by the agency's Southern California X account. The 35-foot sailing vessel, Rainbow End, had beached on the rocky south side of the island for an unknown amount of time when a Good Samaritan vessel, Appa, spotted the disabled boat and radioed the station, said Petty Officer 2nd Class Ryan Graves, a Coast Guard spokesperson. The Oxnard-based Coast Guard station sent out a boat and safely rescued the man who was found alone on the rocks with no injuries, Graves said. The sailboat was reportedly found destroyed the next day, the social media post says.No further details about the man or how his boat ended up on the island were immediately available, the guardsman said. The National Park Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are coordinating debris recovery and handling any investigation into the crash, Graves said."
