INITIAL CONTACT: While at the North Marina parking lot of Willard Bay State Park I was contacted by wife who informed me that her husband, operator, was on a disabled boat that was near the rocks along the North Dike of Willard Bay. I requested the help of Ranger and we responded to the location in the Rescue Boat. I threw a rope to operator who attached it to the bow eye of his boat. The boat was then towed to the North Marina courtesy docks without further incident. Ranger  and I, along with a member of the public assisted operator with loading the boat on the trailer.

ACCIDENT: operator was operating the boat on Willard Bay near the North Dike, when his engine quit running and he was unable to re-start the boat. Due to high winds and rough waves at the time, the boat washed ashore along the North Dike. The wave action of the reservoir caused the hull of the boat to grind into the rocks along the dike causing damage to the hull and outdrive.
