Off. responded to a boating accident that occurred on the west side of Prudence Is.  Reports stated that the vessel involved lost power and was crashing up on the rocks near the south west end of Prudence Is.  Officers reported that the boat was being towed.  Sgt reported that the outboard was trimmed up and it appeared to have an anchor and chain wrapped up in the prop hub which rendered both the engine and anchor inoperable. Seas were 2-4’ and the wind was NW at 15-20mph which is what pushed the boat to the Prudence Is. shoreline.  No injuries reported.
