Coast Guard Still Searching for Missing People From Sunken HMS Bounty

Posted: Updated:

A well-known victim of Hurricane Sandy is the HMS Bounty.

The HMS Bounty is a three-masted ship used in several Hollywood movies.

The US Coast Guard had to rescue the bounty's crew Monday off the coast of North Carolina.

The Coast Guard hoisted 14 crew members out of the dangerous seas to safety.

The agency is still searching for 2 missing people.

They were unable to make it into a life raft.

A giant wave tossed them into the water as they were abandoning the ship.

The bounty sank shortly after the rescue.
