Glass Bottom Spelled Demise For Eponymous Boat

Four people safely evacuated a 100-foot glass-bottom boat off the coast of Malibu and watched the vessel sink. It was supposed to be turned into a restaurant.

The four-person crew had their own lifeboat, however Baywatch lifeguards and a rescue boat from the Santa Monica Police Department were dispatched to the scene at 8:40 a.m. as a precaution.

The boat, used in the 1966 Doris Day film "The Glass Bottom Boat" sank two miles off the coast of Zuma Beach. It departed Newport Beach Saturday at 2 p.m. and was headed to Martinez, near San Francisco.
