\n

The U.S. Coast Guard\u00a0has released the names of seven people who died aboard a Gloucester, Massachusetts<\/a>, commercial fishing boat that sank Friday in frigid waters 25 miles off Cape Ann.<\/p>\n

Coast Guard watchstanders\u00a0received an emergency position indicating a radio beacon\u00a0(EPIRB) alert at about 6:50 a.m. Friday registered to the 72-foot commercial fishing<\/a> vessel Lily Jean.<\/p>\n

USCG crews<\/a> attempted\u00a0to contact the boat, and after getting no response, issued an urgent marine information broadcast (UMIB), according to officials.<\/p>\n

Multiple\u00a0aircraft, cutters and small boats searched 1,047\u00a0square\u00a0miles over 24 hours, finding debris near the location where the EPIRB was activated, along with one body and an unoccupied life raft that had been deployed.<\/p>\n

COAST GUARD SEARCHING FOR SURVIVORS AFTER COMMERCIAL FISHING BOAT SINKS OFF MASSACHUSETTS; 1 BODY RECOVERED<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Search and rescue mission coordinators, on-scene commanders and the Coast Guard\u00a0determined\u00a0on Saturday all reasonable search efforts for the missing crew members had been exhausted.<\/p>\n

The crew members presumed dead have been identified as: captain Accursio\u00a0“Gus”\u00a0Sanfilippo;\u00a0crew member Paul Beal\u00a0Sr.;\u00a0crew member Paul Beal Jr.; crew member John\u00a0Rousanidis; crew member Freeman Short; crew member Sean\u00a0Therrien; and NOAA\u00a0fisheries\u00a0observer Jada Samitt.<\/p>\n

Sanfilippo, a fifth-generation commercial fisherman, and his crew were featured in a 2012 episode of the History Channel show<\/a> “Nor\u2019Easter Men,” highlighting a fishing expedition in dangerous weather conditions, The Associated Press reported<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rear\u00a0Adm. Michael Platt,\u00a0commander of the Coast Guard Northeast\u00a0District,\u00a0has directed a district-level\u00a0formal investigation, which is typically launched for incidents of “significant regional importance” or those that may reveal broader issues with a class of vessel or areas of technical concern.<\/p>\n

Lt. Cmdr. Brett Igo,\u00a0Coast Guard Northeast District<\/a>\u00a0investigation\u00a0oversight\u00a0coordinator, will serve as the lead investigating officer, receiving evidence and testimony using formal rules and procedures.<\/p>\n

The National Transportation\u00a0Safety Board (NTSB)\u00a0will also participate in the investigation.<\/p>\n

Based on its findings, the incident may be reviewed by a Marine Board of Investigation<\/a> (MBI).<\/p>\n

“The purpose of a Coast Guard investigation is to\u00a0identify\u00a0measures that can improve the safety of life and property at sea, not to assign civil or criminal blame,” the Coast Guard wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n

The investigation is expected to take several months to complete.<\/p>\n

The Coast Guard declined to answer additional inquiries from Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n
