RedactedNarrative: On August 5, 2012, at approximately 1750 hours, the NH Marine Patrol received a call about a boat stranded on Lake Winnipesaukee.  The engine had stalled after making a "chirping" sound and gave a warning alarm when the operators attempted to restart the vessel.  The responding patrol boat was unable to get to Vessel I due to the fact that the operator had travelled into an area full of rocks and hazards, having travelled on the wrong side of a navigational marker.  A nearby swimmer eventually was able to swim Vessel I out to the patrol boat.  The operator and passenger of Vessel I stated they did not feel anything that would indicate they had struck a rock, but the damage to the vessel indicates grounding.  The outdrive had to be replaced among other repairs, which amounted to $4,360.00.
