RedactedNarrative: Sunken Vessel 1, bearing Florida Registration # 3961 ET, recovered by National Park Rangers.
  
  I met with Operator 1 at the Homestead Marina boat ramp and inquired about this incident concerning vessel 1. Operator 1 stated that on 12.08.2018, at approximately 2230, he and his wife were aboard vessel 1 near Cape Florida State Park. He said that they were planning to spend the night in the Park until he noticed that vessel 1 was taking on water.  He attempted to start the vessel’s engine but it did not work. At that time, Operator 1 said that he called 911 and they were eventually rescued by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue, before vessel 1 completely sanked. In addition to the vessel’s engine not working, Operator 1 believed the vessel sunk because of a missing drain plug.
