2 missing boaters found in Gulf of Mexico

DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. (AP) 
The U.S. Coast Guard says it's found two of three missing boaters in the Gulf of Mexico.
Authorities say the men set out on a boat from Dauphin Island around 11 a.m. Saturday to fish the rigs about 15 to 20 miles offshore. The Coast Guard says the boaters apparently didn't have a radio or any other device to track where they would be if they got into trouble.
The first boater pulled from the water Sunday was 32-year-old Jacob Shenesey, who was found alive.
WALA reports that a second passenger, 53-year-old Darryl Corley, also was pulled from the water.
Only one boater, 45-year-old Kenneth Boyer, remains missing.
