Firefighters are towing a 22-foot boat that lost power in waters off the Hawai'i Kai area, about a half mile into Maunalua Bay, said HFD spokesman Capt. Frank Johnson.

Firefighters are also taking to shore five individuals who were on the boat.

No injuries were reported.

Firefighters responding to a report of boaters in distress at about 1 p.m. found the vessel drifting in the waters, Johnson said.
