Kelly Rowland rescued after 12 hours stuck at sea: 'It was pretty rocky out there'

According to Eonline.com, Grammy-award winning singer, Kelly Rowland, had to be rescued off the coast of Provincetown, Massachusetts, on Friday after 12 hours of floating adrift. The 32-year-old singer/actress and her friends rented a boat to spend the day whale watching but were left helpless once the vessel broke down.

An employee of TowboatUs of Provincetown told E! News what happened:

“[The boat became] disoriented in the five-to-six-foot waves and fog that had rolled in…The US Coast Guard was able to triangulate their position” after learning that the group needed help.”

As if that weren’t frightening enough, Rowland’s vessel broke down again while being guided back to shore by the US Coast Guard so it had to be towed the rest of the way to safety.

Rowland and her friends were safely guided back to land by 10pm Friday evening after 12 hours of being afloat at sea. And despite the seemingly frightening events of the day, the singer and her friends did not lose heart. Later, Rowland posted photos with friends out enjoying the sites and restaurants of Provincetown, having a blast.

We are happy that Ms. Kelly is safe and sound and enjoying her vacay in New England despite what could have been a tragic ordeal!
