A Coast Guard ship and a tug boat are on the way to try to rescue the vessel. According to The Canadian Press, the Coast Guard ship should arrive about 4 a.m. local time Wednesday when the North Star will be about 20 nautical miles from shore.
Nearly two months ago, the Jacksonville-based El Faro left Blount Island with a crew of 33 and later lost power near the Bahamas.

The boat sank and none of the crew members have been recovered. The ship was found by the Navy three miles below the surface.
