Three men whose fishing boat sank off the Louisiana coast were rescued over the weekend after fending off sharks for more than a day, the U.S.

Coast Guard said. Video and images show the heroic efforts, with the search spanning across 1,250 square miles, an area slightly larger than Rhode Island.

The two boaters who had been fending off sharks had injured hands and were reportedly listed in stable condition at the University Medical Center New Orleans.

The Coast Guard did not release their names and did not specify whether the injuries were from bites. The search – using two boats, two planes and a helicopter – was launched after a concerned family member reported that the three men had failed to return from their trip on Saturday evening.
