RedactedNarrative: We have another vessel that went aground about midnight in Kaneohe waters near the sandbar.  This one is a 40' wooden sampan named "BOOM BOOM", Doc. No. 502593 and hailed from Ko Olina.  It grounded on the reef near the sandbar.  The owner was supposed to come in this morning to get a temporary mooring permit in anchorage area "B".  The owner possibly has State Farm Insurance and I have left a message for him to call me.  I have two people going out to take some photos of the vessel.  We do not know if there has been a fuel release or not but the vessel does have twin diesel engines.  Update: 11/8/12  Kaneohe vessel - the vessel still remains on the reef in Kaneohe.  I also prepped a letter informing the owner that he has until November 9, 2012 at 10:00am to remove the vessel.  I spoke to Parker Marine last night and they never heard back from the owner about working a contract to remove it.  I also spoke to the USCG this morning, who is going out this morning to get an update on the vessel and I have continued to ask them to Federalize the vessel so that they can remove the fuel that is on board.  We are getting conflicting stories on how much diesel fuel is on board. It is reported to be between 30 to 70 gallons of diesel.  I will be meeting up with them this morning at Heeia Kea and I will be posting that notice on the vessel.  The USCG got a call from the previous owner of the vessel which is Boom Boom Sportfishing, LLC.  They are concerned because they weren't paid the monies for the vessel when they originally sold the vessel and the vessel sold again to the current person, who is.  He has not registered or documented the vessel and there may be a lienholder on the vessel, which may be Boom Boom Sportfishing, LLC.  I am still trying to sort that out, but that won't stop us from protecting the reef and having it removed. 
  
   vessel approached the harbor on the wrong side of the channel marker and grounded on the reef.  Operator claimed he was instructed to approach the harbor with the red, lighted channel marker on his port side.
