RedactedNarrative: The operator was exiting the Saugatuck River. He stated that he plotted a course for Huntington Harbor and had lined up his path using the Red Nun #24. He stated that he was unaware that he drifted off course to the inside of #24. His vessel struck a rock and several agencies responded to help the stranded vessel. The assisting agencies ascertained that the operator had struck the rock pile and pushed the struts supporting his propeller shafts, up and through his hull, and ruptured his two fuel tanks. Extensive damage could be seen to both propellers, shafts, struts, and hull.  Passengers were offloaded and the vessel was towed.
