RedactedNarrative: Vessel was transiting from Kelley’s Island to Vermilion.  When it was off Sherod Park it hit an unknown object in the water.  This caused damage to the propeller and drive shaft, stopping the engine.  The operator attempted to anchor, but it did not hold.  He then called the Coast Guard.  A third party on shore called Vermilion Police who responded.
   
  Vermilion Police responded, and they were able to secure the vessel to shore.  The occupants were then safely removed from the vessel.  The vessel was later removed from the rocks.
