RedactedNarrative: On September 3, 2017 at approximately 4:30 p.m. a vessel (Florida registration number: FL4801RD) capsized in the vicinity of N 27.96428928, W 81.29295370. The vessel was heading southwest, at approximately 5 miles per hour, in a narrow canal on the northern portion of Lake Kissimmee. 
  
  Operator informed me that he was in the “Hog trail” located on the northern portion of Lake Kissimmee when the accident occurred, and could point out the approximate location on a map. Operator expressed he was traveling at approximately 4-5 miles per hour while attempting to turn his vessel around when a section of brush snagged the lower starboard portion of his vessel causing the vessel to capsize. 
  
  Operator expressed that he did not remember if the wake caused by the vessel draft passed before he attempted to turn the vessel. Operator informed me that he and Operator’s wife jumped from the vessel as it began to roll. Operator informed me that he and Operator’s wife then proceeded onto the upward facing, bottom portion of the vessel. 
  
  Operator expressed that he swam under the vessel to retrieve a dry box containing a firearm. Operator informed me that a good samaritan aboard a vessel heard him shooting his pistol and proceeded to his location. Operator informed me that the good Samaritan escorted Operator’s wife back to Camp Mack boat ramp, while he stayed to attempt to recover his vessel. Operator informed me of two airboats unsuccessfully attempting to right his vessel and pull it from the lake bottom for approximately 2-3 hours. After the unsuccessful attempt, Operator informed me that he was escorted back to Camp Mack boat ramp on one of the airboats.
