A passenger on a fishing boat died Thursday, Sept. 17, after the vessel struck rocks near the Golden Gate Bridge, capsized and began taking on water.

The 25-foot boat hit rocks near Lime Point, on the north side of the bridge, at about 6:10 a.m., according to Patch. Three people were aboard. One passenger was in cardiac arrest.

The U.S. Coast Guard reached the disabled vessel first. Crews pulled all three passengers from the boat and provided emergency medical care on scene.

Southern Marin Fire Protection District personnel, Tiburon Fire, Marin County Fire and the Coast Guard were notified of the emergency before 6 a.m. and launched a response that also included the San Francisco Fire Department, the SFPD Marine Unit and the Sausalito fire boat Liberty.

One passenger died at a Marin County hospital, San Francisco police said. Southern Marin Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Jason Golden told the Mercury News that the passenger, who had gone into cardiac arrest, was revived on the way to the hospital but died of significant trauma.

The victim was identified as Daniel Zhengyu Qin, 35, of San Jose, the Marin County coroner's office told the Mercury News.

A second passenger remained in critical condition. The third was in stable condition, Southern Marin Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Jason Golden said in a statement, according to Patch.

San Francisco Fire Department media officials said on X that the SFPD Marine Unit transported the patients to the Marin County shoreline for continued care. The department credited joint training among Bay Area agencies for the speed of the response.

The San Francisco Police Department's Major Accident Investigation Team is investigating the crash, Patch reported. The Mercury News reported the Coast Guard is also investigating.

The Golden Gate Bridge sustained no damage, according to Paolo Cosulich-Schwartz, communications director for the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District.
