BOSTON — A possible sunken boat was detected yesterday as the Coast Guard searched Nantucket Sound for a fishing vessel missing with four people on board. The 75-foot Lady of Grace was last heard from Friday night and was supposed to return to New Bedford Harbor early Saturday.
The boat’s last known position was 12 miles south of Hyannis, which is 60 miles southeast of Boston. Searchers had spotted debris and a floating oil sheen in the area, and the water temperature was 40 degrees.
