RedactedNarrative: Vessel was at anchor when the operator and passenger noticed the bilge pump pumping and not shutting off.  Upon lifting an access area in the floor the occupants observed an excessive amount of water in the hull and attempted to head in while calling for help.  The USCG assisted the vessel to an area ramp and kept it dewatered along with the commercial tow company. The vessel was pulled from the water and a crack in the hull was observed on the starboard side about 3 feet long.  There was no evidence of the vessel striking any object.
