RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 (Airboat) was traveling north on the eastern shore of Lake George at approximately 25 mph with two other persons on board. The vessel was being operated in approximately two feet or less of water and through heavy floating vegetation, (hyacinth). The vessel struck a submerged piling that was obscured by this vegetation. The impact caused the vessel to roll to its port side ejecting all occupants. The vessel came to rest on its port side. No injuries beyond first aid were reported. The vessel suffered damage to its bow. 
  
  This report was taken from a nearby boat ramp. All information was gathered from the operator and witness statements. The investigating officer arrived approximately 2 hours after the crash and therefore was not able to access the scene at the time of incident. The operator was only able to provide a name and phone number for the second occupant of the vessel and no information on the third. Despite my attempts to contact the second occupant, he had not returned my calls at the time this report was completed.
