RedactedNarrative: On June 26, 2022 I, Ofc. was dispatched to Island Creek for a vessel that had capsized.  Prior to my arrival both people on the vessel had swam to shore and had already been evaluated by EMS.  I responded to Wind Rush Rd in Oxford, Maryland.  I made contact with the operator of the vessel and the passenger.  They told me that at approximately 1615hrs they were switching fuel tanks on the boat and had started to drift to shore, so they threw out a bow anchor to keep them from hitting a dock.  They said that the boat started filling up with water and within two minutes, had capsized.  The boat capsized with in 30yds of shore and within 20yds of a large pier.  Neither people on the vessel were injured during the event. The operator assured me that the plug was in the boat and that a vessel safety inspection had been completed prior to going under way.  The vessel is described as a 22ft Angler center console boat (MD 8852AB) and is powered by a 2019 Yamaha 115hp outboard.  The owner of the vessel and Father of operator, arrived on scene and told me the vessel is valued at $25,000.    
  
  
  Towboat US had been contacted by the vessel owner prior to my arrival.
  
  All above events occurred in Talbot County, Maryland.
