Vessel 1 was travelling east on the Spokane River near the Highway 95 bridge at approximately 20 mph when it struck a partially submerged log (dead-head).  The operator of vessel 1 did not see the object prior to him striking it.  The dead-head damaged the underside of the hull and knocked the lower-unit of the engine loose.  Another vessel towed them to the the dock nearby and the operator of vessel 1 was able to trailer his boat and remove it from the water.
