From point \( A \), the boat's crew measures the angle of elevation to the beacon, \( 6^{\circ} \), before they draw closer. They measure the angle of elevation a second time from point \( B \) at some later time to be \( 11^{\circ} \). Find the distance from point \( A \) to point \( B \). Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot if necessary.
