RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 was returning home when a passenger noticed it was taking on water.  He advised the other passenger and the operator that the vessel was taking on water.  The operator turned the vessel towards shallow waters and notified the Coast Guard over the VHF radio.  The vessel was beached on a sandbar and the Coast Guard took everyone to shore.  Five days later the owner/operator was able to remove the vessel from the sandbar.
