RedactedNarrative: On July 1st, we responded to a vessel in distress approximately 5 miles South of Duck Key. 
  
  	When we arrived on scene we observed a vessel partially submerged due to water intrusion. 
  	
  	Everyone onboard the vessel was safe and uninjured. 
  	We were on water patrol in the vicinity of Sombrero Lighthouse, Monroe County, State of Florida in a marked patrol vessel. At Approximately 1145 hours, we were dispatched to a vessel taking on water approximately five miles South of Duck Key.
  
  	As we approached Duck Key, I observed a vessel matching the description (a Blue in color Pro-Line approximately 32 feet in length), approximately ½ mile South of Duck Key. The vessel had taken on enough water to be partially submerged and resting on the sea floor in approximately 2-3 feet of water.  
  
  	A good Samaritan had noticed the vessel was in distress and was able to tow it back into shallower water. 
  
  	The operator of the vessel explained that the vessel had begun taking on water due to a faulty generator hose. He explained that the hose had detached, allowing water to intrude into the bilge area of the vessel. 
  
  	
  	Sea Tow was able to retrieve the vessel and bring it back to shore.   
  
  	No injuries resulted from the accident.
