A powerboat began to take-on water this evening off of Old Mill Beach just before 7:00 PM, the boat being reportedly owned by a local rental company, according to nearby vessels. The Westport Police Marine Unit and local Sea Tow personnel responded to the scene to find the pontoon-type vessel nearly fully submerged. No injuries were reported, the cause of the sinking has not been released. Photo by Anthony Loiacono for The Westport Local Press.
