Operator #1 stated in effect, we were sailing at a slow speed when all of a sudden I proceeded to make a sharp turn to avoid other sailboats in the immediate area and overjudged the turn and the wind caught the sail abruptly, causing the boat to flip and capsize.

Vessel #1 was underway at a slow speed in the Toms River. Operator #1, while trying to avoid other vessel traffic in the immediate area, he made a sharp turn with the sail up, and the wind immediately caught the sail, causing the sailboat to capsize and placing both occupants into the river. There were no injuries. Numerous attempts to right the vessel failed due to the amount of water in the vessel. Sea Tow arrived and pumped the vessel out and refloated it.
