operator and his wife were taking their first boat ride of the year when they spotted a duck caught in a net near their home.  The duck was rescued, but their prop got caught up in the net.  Another boat came to help them and they thought they were free, but was still hung on the top line.  Thinking the prop was free, the operator gave the boat some gas to free itself of the net and got hung up again.  The bilge pump quit and the boat filled up with water and capsized.  911 was called.  The second boat that had come to assist them picked up the occupants of the boat.  No pfds were used and no alcohol or drugs were involved.  There were no injuries in this incident.
