Subject 1 was driving the boat from the rear seat heading north up the river returning to the boat ramp when the boat hit a submerged object causing the boat to capsize.  Though the PFD's were readibly accessible as required by law, the PFD's should have been worn due to the hazardous water condition; strong current and floating debris.  Subject 2 was not wearing a PFD at the time of capsizing.  After the boat capsized,Subject 2 was thrown a PFD but was unable to put it on and fasten it.

The vessel was not equipped with required light and no lights were used.
