Susie Jett, 72, and her daughter, Laura Rich, 41, were visiting Kei Iki Beach on Oahu, roughly 25 miles outside of Honolulu, on Monday when they swept out to sea by a dangerously large wave.
The Coast Guard says it has helped rescue a 17-year-old Hawaii high school student who spent nearly 12 hours treading water and clinging to his kayak in the Pacific.
