Two Massachusetts men involved in a boat crash off Singing Beach in Manchester-by-the-Sea have been identified by Essex County District Attorney Paul Tucker’s office. Carl Potter, 67, of Beverly, was found after the Saturday incident and later declared dead at Beverly Hospital. James Wolcott, 37, of Hamilton, remains missing. A third crew member, a 65-year-old man, is still hospitalized, and officials had not identified him as of Monday. The U.S. Coast Guard suspended its search Sunday, but Massachusetts State Police confirmed aerial and marine units continued Monday. Investigators said the 30-foot center-console boat likely hit rocks after losing control.
