    OFF CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (CNN) - A Corpus Christi, Texas family is safe at home after a horrifying boating experience.

    The Coast Guard plucked two adults and three children from the waters Thursday after their boat capsized.

    A rescue vessel quickly scrambled to save them after they got the call that the boat overturned.

    A Coast Guard helicopter used a basket to get them on the rescue vessel.

    Thanks to life jackets, the group was shaken but not injured.
