RedactedNarrative: On this date the vessel was being operated heading north at a slow speed while trolling. This vessel has a low transom, with the waves and following seas water was coming over the transom for much of the day. The scuppers/self bailers were partially obstructed by the modified deck. This along with the slow speed did not allow for water to exit off the deck and thus over time filled the hull. 
  
  The main motor was larger than recommended by the manufacturer and weighed about 80 pounds more than the max size motor that should have been mounted, There was also a small kicker/trolling motor that added weight to the stern and there was approximately 100 gallons of fuel on board. 
  
  The combination of too much weight at the back of the boat, low transom and following seas led the vessel to take on water and capsize.
