The Victim was sitting on the top of the transom of Vessel 1 while the operator was making several turns.  The male passenger subsequently fell off the back of Vessel 1.  At the same time, another passenger aboard Vessel 1 fell inside the vessel, suffering a cut on her head.  The Operator of Vessel 1 stopped Vessel 1, and another passenger reported seeing the male in the water swimming.  This passenger turned away, put on a PFD and untied a fender to throw to the Victim; when she turned back, the Victim was no longer in sight.  The United States Coast Guard arrived on scene shortly thereafter, transported the injured passenger to shore, and started a search for the missing male.  On July 19 at approximately 12 noon, the body of the Victim was pulled from the Maumee River near Cullen Park in Point Place.  Positive identification of the Victim was made by the Lucas County Coroner's Office; cause of death was ruled as drowning and toxicology reports are pending.
