ARRIVAL AT SCENE
We located the boat accident & victims at about 1256 hours.

Both victims were on shore and said that they were fine.  The operator had a small laceration to his forehead and was a little cold, he came on board and was given a blanket to cover up.  The passenger  was wet but had no injuries.

The boat then overturned and both passengers were thrown into the water.Passenger told me that they were cruising at about 30 miles per hour, and he had been using a flashlight to get his fishing pole and the light had interfered with the operators vision.
