Two canoers were found dead Sunday after an overnight boating trip in Tomales Bay.
First responders say the men took off for a night “luminescence” trip around midnight.
Multiple agencies deployed searchers from the water, ground and air.
The body of one man was found in the ocean, just

Both were wearing life jackets.

Investigators say it’s not clear yet how the two ended up in the water. ...read more read less
