An unresponsive man pulled from the water off Nantasket Beach in Hull on Saturday later died, according to Massachusetts State Police.

Around 12 p.m., the State Police said their Marine Unit and the United States Coast Guard were searching the water and beach after reports of a capsized boat.

"It was a little small dinghy boat. It was little," Theresa Mitchell said. "I saw the dinghy getting towed from the water. I saw the helicopter flying all afternoon."  

"I saw what looked like an overturned boat over by the small island," beachgoer Jefferey Danti said. "It looked like a small personal schooner, maybe."

First responders found a man in the water and began performing CPR. The man was taken to the Coast Guard Station Point Allerton in Hull, where he was pronounced dead. He was identified as 56-year-old Michael LaRhette from Hingham.

The Coast Guard continued to search the water throughout the day to make sure that no one else was on the boat when it flipped over. State Police said on Monday that "no other individuals or vessels were missing in connection with this incident."

"At this time, preliminary information does not indicate any outstanding individuals or vessels," said State Police in a statement.

Police are still investigating what caused the boat to capsize. Witnesses say that the waves were around three to four feet tall.

"The waves were just out of control," Mitchell said. "It was a lot."  

The incident rattled beachgoers looking to enjoy the beautiful weather.

"It's terrible, I can't believe anyone would lose their life on a beautiful day like this," Danti said.

The victim's family said they were grieving and declined to comment. There is no other information available.
