The owner stated that he was cruising in a Northwesterly direction at about 20 MPH on the southern side of 2 black spar bouys. His lower unit hit a submerged rock and the engine stalled. The owner called a friend and he arrived a short time later to tow him back to the boat ramp. The officer determined that the cause of the grounding was due to the operator admitting he was not familiar with the area and not using the navigational aids adequately.
