BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. -- Two boaters were safe Wednesday morning after falling into a Brevard County river and waiting almost an hour for help.

The men said they were testing a new boat in the Indian River in Titusville on Tuesday night when they fell in the water. The men were stranded for 45 minutes before rescue crews arrived.

"We got too much weight on one side and we hit a wave and went under," said one fo the passengers on the boat.

The men managed to climb on top of the over-turned boat and wait for rescuers to arrive. They were not seriously injured.
