RedactedNarrative: Three subjects were onboard a 26 foot Charles LLC aluminum boat with twin outboards and remote steering.
  
  Subjects were traversing to their fishing destination at approximately 0700 on May 2, 2018.  while staying close to the shoreline(beach) West of South Pass, they were headed in the direction of East Bay.  The vessel began to hit sand at which point the Captain of the vessel attempted to make a correction to get further away from the shallow area.  Upon attempting to take corrective measures the vessel the struck on the port side by a large wave, which then caused the vessel to capsize. Upon capsizing, all occupants of the vessel were ejected into the water underneath the vessel, no PFD's were worn.
  
  Subject2 was the first to surface from underneath the capsized vessel followed by Operator at which point both were clinging to the vessel.  Upon realizing that the third occupant, Subject3, was not visible, Subject2 swam back underneath the vessel and was able to recover Subject3. Subject2 then took Subject3 to the beach (approximately 200 yards away) and began to perform CPR (Subject3 was unresponsive the entire time and CPR was unsuccessful). When Subject2 looked back to check on Operator, he was unable to see him near the vessel where he had last saw him and did not see him after that.

Subject2 (the recovered survivor) was also transported to the same location, where he then provided agents with a verbal and written statement.
