Hypothermia was setting in when the girls were rescued.
“I grabbed the first girl and helped her up. She was so cold... and she just collapsed on the deck,” Arujo said.
The fishermen say they may have never come across the girls had they not decided to stay in the water longer to catch a sixth salmon and limit out.“It was a close call for those girls, and they didn’t have a whole lot longer. I mean neither one of them could stand up when they got on the boat, and the one young lady said she couldn’t feel her legs,” fisherman Bill Weilbacher said.
