RedactedNarrative: On august 15th, 2015 i responded to a boat that had capsized on kerr lake in little nutbush creek. The vessel was a 19 foot ranger bass boat.  The vessel was traveling at approximately 40 mph and went over a wake 1-2 feet in size.  As the vessel came off the wake the vessel turned sideways to the left ejecting the operator out of the right side of the vessel.  The hull of the vessel was cracked down the right side and there was a separation between the hull and the deck of the vessel that was between 6-8 inches. The motor on the vessel was trimmed all the way down and was still in the straight position like the vessel was traveling. The operator refused medical treatment.  The owner/operator expressed the loss of $3,000.00 of fishing rods and reels and unknown amount of tackle.  The boat was removed from kerr lake by steele creek marina.
