RedactedNarrative: On Monday, September 22, 2014 at 8:34 pm, while on routine patrol with POs of the outer harbor near the USCG station, PO observed a 42’ white Chris Craft wooden motorboat exiting South Shore Marina on the west end at a speed greater than slow no wake, honking its horn and flashing a light.  The occupants of the vessel were yelling that they were taking on water.  The vessel operator steered the boat south and against the wall along the north end of the USCG property. PO along with members of the USCG began to immediately de-water the vessel with de-watering pumps.  USCG was able to locate an approximately 18” crack at the stern of the boat and put wooden wedges to slow the leak and de-watered further.  The vessel stayed moored at the USCG station until a private tow picked them up and took them to the marina.  The operator stated that the damage to the vessel was approximately $1000 in damage and he was going to do all of the repair work on his own.  After the vessel was craned out of the water, PO estimated the damage to be $3000 as there was extensive damage to both brass propellers. 
  
  The operator stated they stayed out there for a few hours and when travelling back west through South Shore Marina, he was in the middle of the marina when he heard a loud bang and thought he hit a rock.  The operator stated that both boat motors died, he re-started he engines and continued driving.  The operator stated a short time later he noticed he was taking on water.
