RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1, with nine persons on board, was launched and proceeding downriver; at the first bend in the river there was a strainer, in which Vessel 1 became entangled.  Vessel 2 (the coach boat) tried to assist Vessel 1 by wedging Vessel 2 between Vessel 1 and the strainer, however in this effort Vessel 1 and Vessel 2 both capsized, putting all involved parties into the water.  Vessel 3 (another coach boat) successfully picked up two of the parties from Vessel 1 and 2 that were in the water, however, as the Operator of Vessel 3 tried to assist additional persons from Vessels 1 and 2, Vessel 3 capsized as well.  All parties from all three vessels were able to swim to shore; all 9 students from Vessel 1 were transported by emergency services and treated and released for mild hypothermia.  No PFDs were used or worn by anyone involved in the incident.  The PFDs were all located on the coach's boats (Vessels 2 and 3) and were washed away by the current when these two vessels capsized.  Significant damage was suffered by all of the vessels involved in this incident.
