Two teens are being called heroes after saving two kayakers near Jupiter Resort Sunday morning. Police said they were caught in a surf around 8 a.m.

It was just a typical, normal Sunday morning for Cauhl Cleary and Scott Jacobs. They were out bright and early fishing along the Jupiter shoreline.

However, in just a matter of moments, that certainly changed along with rough surf conditions.

Cleary and Jacobs found two kayakers screaming for help and pulled them aboard.

The four of them were OK when the boat capsized.

The Marine Unit rescued everyone, but officers said if Cauhl and Jacob weren't there, the two kayakers might not have made it.
