A Coast Guard search for a boat in distress ended with the season’s first boating-while-intoxicated arrest.

According to Petty Officer Corey Carlucci, who was involved in the rescue mission, the Coast Guard station on Star Island, Montauk, was notified by the East Hampton Town Police Department of a call reporting a 20-foot boat adrift in Napeague Bay.
