Two people have escaped without injury after a breaching whale flipped their boat over near the New Hampshire coast,  throwing them overboard.

According to a July 23 post on X by the USCG Sector Northern New England, officials received a mayday call informing them that the 23-foot boat capsized about half a nautical mile east of Odiorne Point State Park in Rye after a whale breached underneath it.
