Boat runs aground near Maui shore

Maui firefighters responded to a sailboat that run aground on the reef off "Baby Beach" in Spreckelsville.

Officials say around 9:30 Thursday night, a fisherman reported a large sailboat coming in out of the dark right in front of his lines.

Firefighters made their way to the boat, investigated and found no one on board.

The 48ft. "Quantum Leap" got disabled earlier in October 600 miles northwest of Hilo on its way from the west coast.

The three men on board were rescued by a passing cruise ship.
