On Wednesday March 24 2010 at approximately 08:00, there was a boat accident on Boone Lake in Sullivan County.  Operator was operating his 2008 Sea Ark near Point 7 when he struck a submerged log while heading upstream. Operator stated that he had just gone through some debris in the water and was traveling a little over 20 miles per hour when the lower unit of his motor struck a log. I observed a break in the port side cavitation plate and most of it was missing. I also observed scratches in the paint on the lower unit and skeg. There were no injuries and no charges are pending.
