   1. At approximately 1330L this afternoon, MSO San Francisco was notified that the F/V Leslie Lee, a 72' steel trawler, was capsized about 9 nm off Trinidad Head, CA. The vessel could have as much as 5,000-10,000 gallons of diesel onboard. A CG overflight this afternoon verified that that vessel was still floating "upside down", with the keel exposed. Air bubbles were seen coming from the bow, which was sitting lower than the stern. A sheen was observed tending away from the vessel, about 1/2nm long x 1/4nm wide. The vessel's position at about 1330 was 41? 04.2'N, 124? 20.8'W. USCG district 11.
   2. COMMODITY: DIESEL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 10000 GALLONS.
