State and federal agencies responded Friday after a houseboat swamped earlier in the week as it was being towed to shore for repairs. The boat was being towed on Tuesday by a lobster boat when it swamped. The owner works as a sternman for the lobster boat owner. DEP staff and the Coast Guard arrived on site early Friday. Sorbent and hard containment booms were placed around the boat to contain any fuel leaking from the vessel.
