RedactedNarrative: There were no eye witnesses to the events that led up to the accident that ultimately resulted in death, although there was an eye witness to what occurred once the Operator/Victim was in the water.   The Witness stated she had been in the yard when she noticed something in the water that looked like an overturned and partially submerged boat. She went inside to get her binoculars and, using the binoculars, could see what looked like something swimming near the over turned boat. She called 911 to report the issue. She also stated that whatever was swimming appeared to be trying to climb on the overturned boat and then started swimming away from the boat.
  
  Given that the boat’s engine was in the “RUN” position and in a “FORWARD” gear, the Operator/Victim's size and age (reduced reaction time), and the narrow stance of the boat, it is reasonable to conclude that, while under power, the Operator/Victim shifted quickly towards one side of the boat, causing the boat to capsize and for him to exit the boat. Not wearing a life jacket, he attempted to climb back on the capsized boat but was unable to do so. At that point, either due to exhaustion or in an attempt to reach shore, he abandoned the boat and started to move south where he eventually lost consciousness and drowned.
  
  The pathologist conducting the initial autopsy stated she had found liquid in the Victim's sinus cavities and that he had bilaterally edematous lungs, or fluid in the lungs, indicating drowning. The pathologist also said that for his size (over weight) and age, the Victim had a surprisingly healthy heart and it did not look like he had a heart attack.
