RedactedNarrative: On October 8, 2023, a boat incident occurred on lake gaston.  The weather was windy, and the water was choppy.  Vessel 1, a recreational vessel, experienced engine trouble and contacted a tow service.  Vessel 2, a commercial for hire vessel, responded to assist.  
  
  Vessel 2 attached a tow line to the bow of vessel 1 and began to pull vessel 1 away from the dock.  Vessel 1 drifted into the rip rap against the bank and sustained minor fiberglass damage to the hull.
  
  Please note:  vessel 2 was the towing vessel that assisted vessel 1 when the operator of vessel 1 experienced engine trouble.  Even though vessel 2 is a commercial for hire vessel, this was not a commercial boating incident.
