RedactedNarrative: This officer was notified of this accident on 06/13/16 by TWRA Officer.  He advised he began working the accident, gathering information when he learned it actually occurred in AR. He turned all the information he had thus far over to me.  Upon contact with V1's operator he advised the accident actually occurred 11 days prior on 06/03/16.
   
  V1 operator stated he was traveling south on the AR side of the Mississippi River with 17 passengers onboard.  He thought he was approximately 100 yards east of the rock dike that is submerged.  He stated he felt a sudden shake in the boat and noted that his depth still showed 30ft. He immediately went to the engine compartment and noticed damage and water flooding in. Passengers began bailing water but couldn't keep up and neither could the bilge pump. He made a distress call and was assisted by another vessel from the Memphis Yacht Club.
   
  The operator has been requested several times to provide a passenger list but has failed to do so.  The operator has failed to return phone calls and e-mail requests for his response so no passenger information has been received or verified.
