Four men are lucky to be alive, after a boat with Jews from Deal, NJ, rescued them after their boat capsized on the Atlantic Ocean.
Sources tell YWN that Joey Cabasso was on his boat (The Gemini) off the Jersey Shore, when he spotted the capsized boat with four men swimming in the Atlantic Ocean without life vests.
In the attached footage provided to YWN, you can see Cabasso pulling the four men to safety. The first man was gasping for air and suffering from exhaustion when he was pulled onto the deck.
Life vests were then tossed to the remaining three swimmers, who were also pulled to safety.
It was unknown what caused the boat to take on water and capsize in the ocean.

Did they have any chance of recovering that mini bobbling ‘Titanic’? Perhaps they could have towed it in somehow.
I know it might be silly to comment since I wasn’t there but it seems to me that they don’t seem that grateful. One little handshake by one of them.
big Deal
@Just wondering, not big deal, big kidush Hashem
@just laundering or u think the guy jumping on this guy staring at the book on the bench, it’s a better hero version ?
What a great miracle and what a beautiful Zechut it is to save four lives. Ashreichem!!
@Just wondering. Great sense of humour!
It’s not a Kiddush Hashem to act like a normal human being.
1. It’s the long standing “Custom of the Sea” to render aid when able.
2. On land you can help or not. That is your choice. At sea you are REQUIRED to help if you can. Under US law failure to help at sea is punishable by upto a $1,000 fine, 2 years in prison, or both.
So now it’s a Kiddush Hashem to act like a Mensch, follow the law & avoid prison?
Is this how far we have fallen?
@kungfuvult independently if it’s the law or not, the mere action of a JEW DOING CHEISSED WITH A GENTILE, it’s called…. KIDUSH HASHEM.
