RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1 was found unattended at approximately 07:45 am, 100 yards from the Muscallonge Bay Canal.  Boat was towed into Cedarville Bay by the finder, who then reported it to the USCG in St. Ignace.  Inspection of the vessel showed the ignition in the on position, the throttle in the forward position, and an empty fuel tank hooked to the motor.  There was damage to the port side rail; it was bowed out in the rear, and its mounting base was broken at the seat frame.  There was no actual witness to the disappearance of the operator, but he was last seen leaving a bar in Hessel around 2:30 to 3:00 am.  The remains of the operator were found on 10/11/2010, twelve days after the vessel was found, located in approximately 5 feet of water, off the North point of Duck Bay, approximately one mile south of where the vessel was found.  The vessel belonged to operator's family.
  
  Upon examination by the Medical Examiner, body had a contusion, and lacerations.  This may have happened after the operator fell overboard, and drowned, or it may have happened during a fall in the boat.  Damage on the vessel may also have been existing damage, or may have had something to do with the accident.  There was no one who witnessed what happened. 
  There was no mention in the accident report from the Sheriff Dept., that the cause of the accident could have been alcohol, or that there was a suspician of alcohol.
