Duck Boat Lifted From Water

Efforts are underway to lift the duck boat that sank last week and killed seventeen near Branson.

The U.S. Coast Guard started working at removing the boat around 9 this (Monday) morning.

According to reports it is under 80 feet of water and divers will swim down and connect the boat to a crane, which will lift it up.

Divers already recovered a digital recorder from the vessel and it is the hopes of authorities that this will assist in their investigation into why the boat sank.
