Suffolk police's Marine Bureau rescued five people from Long Island Sound near Fort Salonga after the group's boat capsized Tuesday afternoon.
Officers responded to a 911 call for the boat off the coast of Crab Meadow Beach just before 5 p.m. When they arrived, police say they found the five men standing on the underside of the 21-foot boat.
Three life vest-wearing passengers swam to the bureau's boat, while the other two were rescued via flotation devices that were thrown to them.
The boat was towed to a ramp in Northport, police say.
The five men, who were between ages 24 and 54 and from Long Island, were evaluated but were not injured.
