USCGC Antietam (WPC 128) arrived and picked up the men in the lifeboat. While maneuvering to remove the men on the stern, her port propeller got fouled with a mooring line. The men were then rescued by USS Larch (AN 21). The survivors reported that the U-boat surfaced 5 minutes after the attack, circled the stern and departed 45 minutes later on a southerly course.
