RedactedNarrative: Operator of V1 launched on the downstream side of Terry Lock and Dam and motored across to the middle of the river. He positioned V1 about 150 yards downstream from the lock gates and began to fish.  Operator stated after about an hour the waves began to get very large and V1 took 3 waves over the bow causing it to begin to sink. Both the operator and passenger were wearing PFDs and when V1 completely sank, they attempted to swim to the bank. A barge ("Lucy Janoush") saw them and launched a small craft to rescue them and take them to the boat ramp.
