The youngest son was sitting on the jet ski, and his father and brother were nearby.

Rescuers took them to a speedboat and then to the hospital for checks.

The family had an overnight ordeal off an island in Thailand.

They were found about five miles from the beach after a big search.

The boys' mother and sister were happy to see them when they got back to land.

The family rented a jet ski on Thursday at 5 p.m.

When they didn't return, the jet ski operator looked for them and then told the authorities.

The operator sent other jet skis to search, and then more people joined in.

A big search started at 8:50 p.m. but stopped at 1 a.m. due to big waves.

The search started again on Friday morning with speedboats and jet skis.

The father said rough waves stopped the jet ski's engine near the end of their rental time.

The family spent the night at sea, with the father and older son in the water.

The father thanked everyone for helping his family get back to land safely.
