The following boat accident occurred on September 1, 2012, at approximately 1602 hours.
 
Vessel I was adrift while some of the passengers were swimming.  The operator observed the boat drifting toward shore and had the swimmers reboard the vessel so he could pull further from shore.  As he backed up, Vessel I caught a wake from a passing boat and one of the passengers who was seated on the transom cushion fell over the stern.  The operator immediately put the boat in neutral, but the propeller had already made contact with the victim's leg.  NH Marine Patrol took the victim onboard and escorted him to shore where they were met by EMS.  The victim received stitches to close the wound and was discharged from the hospital that evening.
