RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1 was anchored and fishing on Lake Erie.  The Operator pulled the anchor and was attempting to relocate.  Vessel #1 was heading NE with the waves.  The engine of Vessel #1 stalled allowing the low transom to get swamped by a following wave.  The passenger of Vessel #1 attempted to throw the anchor to swing Vessel #1's bow into the waves and allow the bilge pump to catch up with the water inside.  
  
  Vessel #1 took on more water and began to sink before the bilge pump could eliminate the water taken on.  The Operator and passenger of Vessel #1 grabbed lifejackets and stood on the bow of the vessel attempting to signal for help. The passenger swam, pulling the Operator to a nearby fishing vessel that was able to contact the USCG.  Both the Operator and passenger were taken to St. Vincents Hospital by USCG helicopter.
