The operator of vessel 1 was towing a wakeboarder when the wakeboarder fell.  As vessel 1 began to turn left, a large wake came over the front and into the bow of the vessel.  This caused the front of vessel 1 to dip in a downward angle into the water, which caused a larger amount of water to enter the vessel.  Due to the amount of water in vessel 1, it became unbalanced.  Occupants tried to keep it in the upright position, but more waves of water entered the vessel.  All of the passengers jumped off the left side of the vessel.  The operator stayed on the right side in attempts to keep vessel 1 in an upright position.  Vessel 1 then flipped over to the left and capsized.  The operator went under water with vessel 1.  The operator swam out from underneath the vessel unharmed.
