District spokeswoman Mary Currie said there were 300 people on board the ferry that departed Larkspur around 6:35AM, and made a detour when the woman was spotted in the channel.
Currie said the woman was waving her arms and appeared to be in distress. She was taken aboard then transported by ambulance to a hospital when the ferry docked at the San Francisco terminal at 7:30AM. The woman was exhibiting signs of hypothermia, Currie said. She also said the district’s ferries stop whenever a rescue is needed and that rescues happen occasionally.
