The vessel operator stated he was attempting to dock his boat when water began to come over the bow.  The amount of water continued to flow into the boat until it sank and all occupants had to abandon the boat and swim to shore.  There were no injuries reported and the operator did not strike an object to cause the incident.  There were no citations issued and ESDA was on scene and recovered the boat approximately 40 yards from the ramp.  The boat was not over capacity and the weather conditions appeared to have caused the incident.
