RedactedNarrative: Boating accident at stump field, Lake Seminole.
   I spoke with subject OP1 who was on scene at Howell Landing.  OP1 said he was operating his 11' homemade air boat approaching the area known as the "stump field".  OP1 said he began to see stumps and slowly started to turn to the port side.  As the vessel turned water began pouring over the transom and the vessel started to sink. The vessel listed to the starboard and capsized.  OP1 stated the vessel capsized and sank leaving him and passenger PAX1 in the water.  OP1 and PAX1 were not wearing life jackets when the incident occurred.  OP1 and PAX1 were picked up by a good samaritan vessel and brought to Howell Landing.  
  Jackson County Sheriff's Office also responded to the incident.  I met JCSO at Howell Landing, Lake Seminole.  JCSO launched a vessel and with subject OP1 aboard returned to the area where the vessel sank.  I along with FWC also proceeded to the area by patrol vessel and searched for the capsized airboat.  We searched the general area of the stump field where the vessel capsized but was unable to locate it.  
  On Saturday May 29th, FWC as well as the good samaritan vessel returned to the scene.  The good samaritan vessel utilized a gps chart plotter and was able to located the specific area that the vessel sank.  The vessel was located and marked with floating buoys. 
  OP1 advised he would be making arrangements to salvage the vessel.
