That the little boat, with the utilitarian name CG236 (CG for Coast Guard, 280 for its length and 21952 for a serial number), made it out to the Pendleton, let alone back with all but one of the 33 stranded sailors, is still a source of wonder to naval historians, who consider this the greatest small-boat rescue ever.
