RedactedNarrative: On January 2, 2023, Officers of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission were on duty, in uniform, in a marked patrol vessel. We patrolled the areas of Monroe County, State of Florida when we received a call of a possible vessel capsized ocean side of Ocean Reef yacht Club. While en route we took witness statements from the occupants onboard the vessel that were taken to shore by a good Samaritan vessel that was near.
  The owner and the occupant were both on the vessel at the time of the incident. According to the witness statement from them, had stated that the vessel was at anchor when a wave came over the port side stern of the vessel causing it to get swamped fairly quick and the bilge pumps on the vessel were not fast enough to pump the water out.
  On January 9, 2023, I spoke to OP1 and he explained that once the wave came over the stern, the gunwale became increasingly lower to the water and more waves continued to enter over the gunwale. OP1 explained there was nothing they could do and had to exit the vessel. OP1 continued explaining they did not have life jackets on the vessel and decided to hang onto the vessel until rescue arrived. 
  After the vessel was completely submerged underwater the bow was approximately five inches below the surface as the vessel stayed in a upwards position. Once arriving on scene, I photographed the vessel and documented the coordinates to notify United States Coast Guard of the hazards submerged vessel.
