RedactedNarrative: On June 19, 2011, Operator and his son launched their small jon boat from Eagle Point Marina that morning to go fishing out into Galveston Bay between Eagle Point and the Spillway Park.  The wind started picking up and they decided that they better start heading back in.  Along the way, the waves started getting larger, and water started coming over the bow of the vessel.  The father, Operator told his son that they needed to get their PFD's on that the water was getting very rough.  A wave hit them from the side causing the vessel to capsize at approximately 08:00 am.  They floated around out in the water until approximatley 10:15 am when USCG Helicopter flew by and spotted them floating off of Eagle Point out towards Red Fish Island.  The USCG lowered a diver into the water and picked up both Operator and his son.  No injuries were reported.  The vessel was later found who obtained the owner information and contacted Operator that he had found the vessel, but it was now full of holes.  Operator informed subject that he could have the vessel if he wanted it.
