The Operator of Vessel 1 stopped on the east side of Orchard Island to secure gear within the boat during a windstorm.  When the Operator resumed operation and came around Orchard Island into the wind, a wave came over the bow of Vessel 1, killing the engine.  Waves continued to roll over the bow of Vessel 1, eventually swamping Vessel 1 to the point that it became submerged.  Both Occupants were put into the water as a result of the incident; they were assisted by another passing vessel and taken to shore at Liebs Island.  Vessel 1 was later recovered by a towing service.
