One fisherman died and another remained missing after their vessel capsized near Race Point at Provincetown, Mass., March 5, according to the Coast Guard.

Watchstanders at the Coast Guard Sector Southeastern New England received a report from two Good Samaritans of a capsized vessel, later identified to be the F/V Yankee Rose. A search with aircraft, response boats and other responders resulted with state Environmental Police recovering one person from the water around 12:27 p.m.

At approximately 3:48 p.m., a Coast Guard helicopter crew confirmed the Yankee Rose had sank with an adjacent debris field.

“Our thoughts are with the families of the crew of the F/V Yankee Rose and the local fishing community,” said Cmdr. Thomas Wieland, Sector SENE Search and Rescue Mission Coordinator. “Coast Guard crews are continuing to search the area, and we remain committed to doing everything possible to locate the missing mariner.”

In a Facebook posting, Provincetown Manager Alex Morse said the loss of two fishermen will be “felt deeply” by the community.

“Provincetown has a long and proud maritime history, and fishing has always been a central part of our community’s identity. The fishing community is a close-knit one, where the dangers of the sea are well understood and deeply respected,” Morse said. “We know the loss of these fellow fishermen will no doubt be deeply felt by many here who share that bond.”

The capsizing comes during a bitter winter and after the Jan. 30 sinking of the Gloucester-based F/V Lily Jean with the loss of all seven on board. Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey released a statement on the Yankee Rose.

"This is another devastating reminder of the dangers that come with life at sea and another tragedy for Massachusetts’ fishing industry and the families who make their living on the water, especially so soon after the loss of the Lily Jean in Gloucester."
