RedactedNarrative: On 6/2/12 at approximately 4:00 PM, I (CPO) was notified by ISP of a boater on Braidwood Lake whose boat had been swamped and was stuck on an island.  I retrieved a boat from Braidwood/Mazonia State Fish and Wildlife area and was able to locate the operator and his occupant on an island approximately 1/2 mile north of the south boat ramp.  The  boat was approximately 5 feet off shore, with waves causing the hull and lower unit to hit the rocks on the lake bottom. 
  
  I assisted subjects in getting the water out of their boat and towed them back to the south boat ramp, where I filled out a Boat Accident Report.  operator advised me he had anchored off at both the bow and the stern of the boat and waves began to come over the stern of the boat, swamping it.  They were able to get closer to the shore before taking on more water.  Once the boat was on the trailer I could not see any visible holes or major dents in the boat or major damage to the lower unit.
  
  I explained the BAR and gave opeartor a copy.  There were no injuries and no enforcement action taken.  
  
  On 6/12/12 at 2:00 I called opeartor and he advised that he replaced the fuel, but had no other problems with the boat.  He also stated he had already been back out on the lake, with no problems with the boat.
