"My dad - he's not very good with boating so he kind of tipped the boat over and it kind of filled with water, and then we got out of the boat," Edward Zhong said.
Everyone was wearing life vests at the time.
The family's small boat was flipped back up and towed to shore by the San Francisco Police boat.
