RedactedNarrative: On April 1, 2021, I, Trooper, received a call of a capsized boat with 2 occupants in the water near Natchez Trace Bridge. I received the call around 1130. I responded to the area. A yacht had recovered both occupants from the water. Colbert EMA retrieved the occupants from the yacht and transported
  them to Colbert Ferry Ramp. 
  
  The operator was identified. The occupant was identified. The boat they were driving was a 1995 Ranger bass boat. Operator said that he was having engine troubles. The boat was facing upstream and the wind was blowing towards the south creating 2 - 3' waves. 
  
  The stern of the boat was filled with water and the boat was swamped. The swamped vessel traveled downstream to the North. A passing yacht tried to recover both people but the wake from the yacht caused the vessel to overturn. Both occupants were able to be boarded onto the yacht. 
  
  Operator and Occupant were evaluated for injuries by Keller EMS. Both occupants refused to be transported. Operator estimated the value of the vessel at $6000.00. Operator said the loss of the fishing gear was $4000.00 and the loss of personal items was $2000.00. I was able to go out and retrieve the vessel and tow it back to Colbert Ferry. The vessel was flipped up right by a Wrecker and was loaded onto Operator trailer.
  
  Nothing further to report at this time
