The occupants launched from Arrow Head Point boat ramp on Belton Lake. They headed Westward across the lake toward the waterfalls at the WCID #1 water treatment facility. Upon arrival the motor stalled the wind turned the transom into the waves and water began splashing over the transom. The boat was already over capacity by weight and the extra weight of the water made its water line diminish. The boat was not equipped with extra internal flotation so it capsized.  Due to the year of manufacture and photos provided it was shown that this small vessel could not handle the weight of its crew and cargo plus the extra water coming aboard. The five occupants of the boat ended up un the water. Four of them made it to the southwest shoreline of the lake. Subject1 was assisted by local fishermen who helped him to the bank however; he was pronounced dead at the scene, autopsy showed cause of death to be drowning. Subject 2's body recovered on 3-26-09. Blood samples and witness statements also show that alcohol was a contributing factor.  B.A.C. was determined by DPS Crime Lab, Waco Texas.  Boat has still not been located/recovered, unknown location of boat.
