Rafter found

Dec. 9 - The Coast Guard is leading the search for two Cuban migrants after a homemade raft was discovered Monday in Biscayne Bay seven miles off Key Biscayne.
One person was found dead in the water and another was rescued from the raft, according to the Coast Guard.
A good Samaritan boater discovered the raft and notified the Coast Guard, which is searching along with Miami-Dade Fire-Rescue and Florida Fish and Wildlife officers. 
The survivor, who Miami fire officials said was on the raft for six days, was transferred to a Miami-Dade rescue boat and then to Mercy Hospital. The Coast Guard launched a helicopter and airplane as well as two boat crews from the Miami Beach station.
