RedactedNarrative: On june 11, 2010, at approximately 2:00 pm, the operator left the marina at tongue river reservoir with two passengers to go up the river.  They were trying to reach the acme area where tongue river crosses interstate 90 in wyoming.  On their trip up the river, they came to an old broken down foot bridge where the cables and wires were just touching the water in the middle.  They were able to pass on the edge of the river and under the cables.  On the way back down the river, they attempted to aim up river and back underneath the cables, but the jet became plugged with debris and they lost power.  The current then carried them towards the middle of the river turning the boat parallel to the cables.  Then they collided with the cables on the starboard side of the boat.  This pushed the port side of the boat down fillng it with water and capsizing the boat.  The operator and both passengers found themselves under the boat, but all three came out.  Both passengers swam to shore and the operator climbed onto the bottom of the boat and floated down the river for another half mile or so.  There the boat was going to collide with a log jam so the operator jumped off and swam to shore.  The boat then collided with the log jam and completely submerged itself under the logs until it broke loose and was caught on a stump just a little further downriver.  The operator and one of the passengers felt hypothermic.  They both went to a home that was close to the river where the owners allowed them to come in and warm up.  The other passenger rode back to the marina and got his truck and came and picked up the two staying at the house.  The next day they returned with chains and cables and pulled the boat out of the water.  They emptied the water out of the boat and loaded it and went home.
