Two New Jersey boaters who were rescued at sea on Tuesday are being reunited with their families.
Joe DiTommasso, 76, and Kevin Hyde, 65, apparently ran out of fuel during their trip down to Florida aboard their boat, Atrevida II.
The boat also ran out of power, rendering radios and navigation systems useless.
The pair was expected to be debriefed and medically evaluated at a Coast Guard base in Staten Island before being reunited with family.
