Vessel 1 was travelling southbound from the Mahoning Avenue Causeway Bridge, heading into gusty wind and waves, when the wind caused Vessel 1 to turn broadside to the waves three separate times and take water over the starboard side of the transom.  Vessel 1 then flooded and sank.  The two Occupants aboard Vessel 1 were wearing type III lifejackets and were rescued by other boaters and transported to the boat ramp.  No injuries were sustained and no medical treatment was rendered.  Investigation determined that Vessel 1 was most likely overloaded for the weather conditions at hand.
