      Something like:

      ‘The boy’s 47-year-old mother, her other son, 12, and daughter, eight, were located at around 20:30 by a rescue helicopter. They were found clinging to a paddleboard about 14km offshore.’

      The way they’ve put it, it sounds like the rescue helicopter was clinging to a paddleboard when it found them!
