RedactedNarrative:
The watercraft was going through a No Wake Zone after picking up a passenger from the marina dock. They then headed south on the river. The occupants of the watercraft stated the Operator's hat flew off the boat and into the water. The Operator slowed down and turned the boat around to get his hat. The occupants said they weren't very familiar with boats but believed that the Operator kept the boat in gear and went to the front of the boat to reach down into the water to grab his hat. They stated that as the Operator reached down, he fell into the water at the front left side of the boat and went under the boat. The occupants took control of the boat and went back to grab the Operator out of the water when he resurfaced about 40 seconds later. The Operator had been struck by the propeller and had received injuries to his face and right arm. Two occupants jumped in the water to get him back to the boat. When law enforcement arrived, the victim was on the back of the boat with his girlfriend, curled up with blood draining from him into the water. He was put on a backboard and put in the ambulance. He was conscious, semi-alert, talking and breathing at this time. He was taken to a hospital in St. Paul. Life jackets were not being worn at the time of the incident. Alcohol was not a factor.

RedactedNarrative:
A group of 3 men were on an unregistered paddle boat. They were about half-way across the lake when the paddle boat began taking on water and was getting low on one side. They started heading back toward shore. It became too hard to pedal so they got out of the paddle boat and were hanging on to the edge. 

They decided to try to swim the paddle boat back to shore, but it started to take on too much water and started to sink. One of the men was not a very good swimmer and could not keep up with the other two. They attempted to help him, but he was pushing them away. 

A PWC operator came over to help and saw the man go under the water, so he jumped in to help the man. He couldn't find the man in the water, so he got back on the PWC and called 911. The victim's body was recovered about 3 hours later. The Operator and the other Passenger were checked out on scene by ambulance personnel. Life jackets were not being worn and were not on board. Alcohol was not a factor. It is not known who the owner of the paddle boat was. The men on the boat did not know how it began taking on water, whether the plug had come out or if there was a crack in the boat.

RedactedNarrative:
The watercraft was seen sinking after hitting a breakwall near the lift bridge in Duluth. The Coast Guard arrived on scene and saw the 5 occupants were not in any immediate danger as the boat had stabilized, and did not approach as the occupants were intoxicated, and the rocks would have wrecked the USCG's boat. 

County Deputies arrived on scene and the boat occupants alleged that the boat's owner was driving as a sober party, and an intoxicated party was navigating. 

The occupants also said the lighthouse was out, which made navigation more difficult. The occupants were brought back to shore and there were no injuries. The watercraft ended up being about 75% submerged. Life jackets were not being worn. It is unknown if life jackets were on board because the boat sank. The watercraft had just been purchased the previous day. The watercraft was a total loss.

RedactedNarrative:
Deputies received a report of a watercraft (WC #1) spinning in circles for the last five minutes on Smiths Bay with nobody on board. When deputies arrived, the boat was spinning at full throttle and they began a surface search of the area. At 12:46 pm, deputies received a report that something was seen floating in the water approximately 400 yards to the east of their location. They moved in that direction and located the Operator floating in the water, conscious and aware. They pulled him into the patrol boat. He had a cut on his head and was showing signs of hypothermia. The Operator said there was no one else on board the boat. They brought him to a marina, where paramedics were stationed. He was checked by paramedics who loaded him in the ambulance. He was transported to the hospital.

Other deputies worked on getting the spinning watercraft (WC #1) under control. The boat was spinning in a tight circle at a fairly high speed and had a full tank of gas. The water was rough with rolling white-capped waves. They attached a buoy to the end of a large diameter anchor line and then tied the line to the patrol boat. The line was thrown in the water and they circled the spinning WC #1 until it drove over the line. WC #1 slowed down, and then the propeller snapped the line. They attempted the process a second time. This time the line caught on the front of the motor and pulled WC #1 into the patrol boat, with its bow striking the patrol boat midship on the port side. WC #1 was still moving and made two additional circles, striking the patrol boat each time, before the line broke. The displacement of the circles changed from the ropes and WC #1 worked its way to shore where it ran aground. Once stopped, a deputy confirmed the throttle position was all the way forward, indicating WC #1 was at full speed when the operator was thrown out.

Life jackets were being worn by all involved. Alcohol was not a factor. There was damage to both boats as a result of stopping WC #1.

RedactedNarrative:
On 9/17/2022, a deputy was dispatched to a property damage call. A witness stated he was at his residence the previous night (9/16/2022) when he saw a watercraft traveling west at a high rate of speed. Not long after, he heard a very loud crashing noise near the beach at the fishing pier. He then saw the watercraft at the dock before it took off back east toward West Arm Bay. After about 30 minutes, he saw what looked like the same boat come back into the bay and park at a nearby dock. The next morning, he looked at the watercraft and noticed front end damage to the craft. 

The deputy located damage to the city dock and a heavily damaged watercraft parked at a nearby residential dock in the bay. The watercraft did not belong to the dock owner, but the space was being rented out. The watercraft owner was then located, and he admitted to running into the dock, stating he didn't see it and the dock did not have lights. 

Excessive speed is believed to be the cause of the accident. The use of alcohol is unknown. There was extensive damage to the front and sides of the watercraft, including holes in the fiberglass. The city dock was heavily damaged. There were no injuries.

Owner/Operator of Watercraft #1 said he was parked on the end of the docks. He backed out of the spot, turned the bow facing east and proceeded to leave the lagoon where the docks are. 

As he attempted to exit, the starboard stern corner of his watercraft turned in to the bow of WC #2, which was unoccupied and in a slip. 

Operator #1 stated he tried to place his watercraft in reverse to avoid collision but should have pushed off the bow of Watercraft #2 to avoid collision. The bow eye hook on WC #2 caught his cleat and scraped the fiberglass on the starboard stern of WC #1. Operator #2, who was near the volleyball courts, was informed about the incident. He exchanged contact information with Operator #1. Life jackets were on board both boats. Life jackets were not being worn on WC #1. Alcohol was not a factor. There were no injuries.

RedactedNarrative:
Ramsey County Sheriff's Water Patrol Office received a request to assist the Hennepin County Sheriff's Water Patrol with a property damage boating accident. Upon arrival, the Hennepin Co. Deputy stated that while he was towing a disabled pontoon boat (WC #1) into the marina, the pontoon had collided into a docked cabin cruiser boat (WC #2). 

The Henn. Co. Deputy stated that he met up with the Owner/Operator of WC #1 at the Hwy 5 bridge. He tied a towing rope to WC #1 and towed it, and it's occupants, to the marina. Deputy stated as he entered the marina, he attempted to steer his boat and the towed pontoon (WC #1) over to the boat ramp dock, but because of the current going into the marina and the moderate winds, WC #1 had drifted into a parked cabin cruiser house boat causing minor damage to the left rear deck platform of WC #2. The Deputy was able to assist the pontoon over to the boat launch dock and it was then taken out of the water by the owner. The Deputy then made contact with the Owner of WC #2 to advise him about the incident.

The Ramsey County Deputy made contact with the Owner of WC #1, who said that he and his wife were on the pontoon boat while it was being towed and there was nothing anyone could do to avoid hitting the parked cabin cruiser (WC #2). WC #1 had a small amount of damage to the front left float.

The Ramsey Co. Deputy also attempted to make contact with the owner of WC #2 (as of 8/6) but had not heard back from him. He finally received a damage estimate on 10/26/2022.

There were no injuries associated with this incident. Alcohol was not a factor. Life jackets were being worn on WC #1.

The primary reason for this accident was a jam nut on the steering arm bar worked loose. This caused the loss of steering, turning the vessel abruptly to the starboard throwing the operator and passengers to the port side. Vessel one was going at an excessive rate of speed, which added to the force in which the occupants were thrown.  Also the extremely rough water conditions caused by a large number of boaters in the area. This caused the victims to fall into each other causing the injuries.

RedactedNarrative:
The primary cause of this boating crash was the operator of vessel one cutting too close to mallard point while pulling out of workman hollow cove into the main channel of the lake. Operator of vessel 1 failed to keep a proper look out while pulling into the main channel. Vessel 1 was going at an excessive speed to avoid a collision, around mallard point with his visibility of the main channel restricted by the land.  
 
This vessel crash occurred as follows.  Vessel 1 left the cove driving close to the shore line near the point going upstream. Vessel 2 was traveling downstream close to the shore at the point. Vessel 1 could not see vessel 2 as it turned around the point until vessel 1 was on the main channel. Vessel 2 could not see vessel 1 as it came out of the cove until vessel 1 was on the main channel. Vessel 2 turned to the starboard towards the shore to avoid vessel 1. Vessel 1 turned to the port to avoid vessel 2. The starboard bow of vessel 1 struck the port side of vessel 2 in the area of the passenger's seat. The passenger was thrown to the floor of vessel 2 and knocked unconscious.

Operator 1 was operating vessel 1 when the operator let off the throttle causing vessel 1's bow to lower. When the bow lowered it caused vessel 1 to begin to take on water. The operator and passenger 2 moved to the front of the vessel in an attempt to get water out of the vessel. Due to the additional weight this caused vessel 1 to fill with more with water and began to sink. Operator 1 was able to get a pfd on, but the other passengers were unable to locate pfd's due to them being locked in the storage compartment. All of the occupants on vessel 1 sustained injuries (hypothermia) due to the cold water temperatures and passenger 3 sustained serious injuries (diabetic shock). Vessel 1 water damage to the engines from the vessel swamping.
