RedactedNarrative: The operator and his passengers decided to see the water conditions at the mouth of the river. After seeing that the waves were large, the operator tried to turn the vessel around, however the engine stalled. He tried to restart the engine several times with no success. The heavy wave action carried the vessel into the center of the east breakwall causing severe damage to the hull of the vessel. The operator and all passengers put on life jackets and climbed from the vessel to the breakwall. The vessel sunk and all parties refused medical treatment.
