A 62-ft. commercial fishing boat that had run aground was dislodged early Saturday, Harbor Patrol officials said.
Two tugboats pulled the Emerald Sea to Newport Harbor just after midnight, where Coast Guard officials will inspect it.
The boat ran aground on a sandbar near 36th Street on Friday morning. Preliminary reports point to operator error, officials said.
