  On 07/17/2014, at about 10:30 a.m., this vessel was drifting on Port Gardner near the Boeing Pier (1501 1st St) located near Everett WA in Snohomish county. The Operator was hauling up a crab pot using his boat's davit. Operator reported that he thought that the line he was hauling did not have a lead weight on it, but when the line was coming up, he found that it did. Operator quickly detached the lead weight, but lost control of it and it flew into the boat. 
  
  According to Operator, he turned to watch where the weight was going and when he turned back he found that his left hand was caught between the crab pot line and the davit wheel. Operator freed his hand and when he removed his glove he found that the pinkie finger on his left hand had been severed and was solely attached by a small piece of skin. He was able to get himself back to the boat launch were someone called 911. 
  
  Operator was transported to Harborview Medical Center. Doctors were unable to save the finger, which was ultimately amputated.
