RedactedNarrative: BASED ON INFORMATION TO DATE:  According to the vessel operator, P1 was driving his vessel southbound down the Tennessee River just South of Cottonport Marina.  He had throttled his vessel up on-plane when he collided with a floating log.  His vessel immediatly began taking on water.  He was able to drive it back and get it in the trailer before it sank.  There was a medium sized area on the port hull that did show tearing/ripping of the fiberglass about halfway down the hull ripping toward the stern.  P1 was waiting on an estimate for repairs.
