RedactedNarrative: The Chaparral ski boat was on Lake Livingston near Cedar Point.  According to the operator they had reduced speed and they were making a turn because the operator was unsure about underwater tree stumps in the area.  Upon making the turn the boat struck a submerged tree stump and the collision cracked the hull of the boat.  The boat took on water and the operator was unable to get the boat on plane.  The operator was unable to bilge the water from the hull.  The boat sank with only 3 to 4 feet of the bow above the surface of the water.  All ocupants in the vessel were rescued and transported to the shore.  Alcohol was not a factor and the boat was equiped with a PFD for everyone on board the vessel.
