MIAMI (CBSMIAMI) -- The U.S. Coast Guard rescued three people near Florida's panhandle this week.

The three men got in trouble when their fishing boat started to sink about 35 miles southwest of Cape San Blas.

Luckily, they were able to board a small life raft.

A girlfriend of one of the men called the U.S. Coast Guard for help.

Fortunately, the Coast Guard was able to spot them about three hours after their boat sank and rescued them.

No one was hurt.
