HONOLULU, Hawaii - It was a dramatic rescue on the high seas when a man and woman from Seattle hit rough weather about 400 miles from Hawaii.
The Coast Guard and the cruise ship "Golden Princess" rescued Christopher Miller and Brandy Meisner when they were forced to abandon their fishing vessel yesterday.
The couple's two dogs -- Romeo and Akilah -- were also brought to safety on the cruise ship.
They will now sail on the Golden Princess to Honolulu, where they are due to dock tomorrow.
Miller and Meisner left San Francisco last month for what was to be a two-week trip to Hawaii, where they were to start a commercial fishing business.
They hope a tracking device on their boat will help them recover it and move forward with their plans.
