The 3 occupants rented V1 and were float fishing traveling south just above Cane Island when the lower unit of the motor hit a submerged log and caused V1 to turn sideways and take on water.  V1 eventually sank causing the 3 occupants to abandon ship and swim to a low hanging limb.  At that time a State Park Ranger and a Bull Shoals State Park superintendent rescued the 3.  The boat had not been recovered at the time of this report.
