RedactedNarrative: On may 6th, 2009 at about 1115 hours, subject 1 noticed that his vessel was taking on water and that the blige pump did not seem to be working.  subject 1 looked into the engine compartment and saw a large stream of water pouring into the compartment.  It appeared that a hose had come loose from the thru hull fitting and was allowing the water to enter.  The bilge pump was unable to keep up with the volume that was coming in.  subject 1 stated that it appeared to be about 3 inch in diameter hole.  The main engine failed.  subject 1 used a small kicker motor to propel the vessel closer to the shore.  As the boat continued to take on water the stern started to go down.  Then as the vessel was almost to shore it rolled over.  The stern of the vessel sank and ground on the bottom preventing the boat from going completely over.  At law enforcement arrival two people were still onboard.  No one was wearing a life jacket.  The two remaining people were removed from the vessel.  The vessel was secured to the shore to prevent it from drifting and becomnig a hazard.  There were no injuries. subject 1 and his party were on the Hood Canal fishing for shrimp.
