RedactedNarrative: On October 26, 2015 I, U.S. Park Ranger was notified of a boat accident in Bullfrog Bay near the Stanton Creek Primitive Campground. I responded with Bullfrog District Ranger. Dispatch informed me that the reporting party had run his motorboat (grey and red 2002 Lund) aground on an island. We arrived at the island and met with OPERATOR. OPERATOR told me he was boating back to Bullfrog when he became distracted by his GPS and failed to notice the island in front of him. operator did not have the odor of an alcoholic beverage and denied being under the influence. I did not notice any impairment from OPERATOR. Subject took pictures of the scene and we provided a courtesy transport to OPERATOR's houseboat on the N dock at Bullfrog Covered Slips.
  
  On October 27, 2015 Ranger took pictures of the boat during the day. OPERATOR boat came to rest approximately three feet out of the water, approximately twenty yards from the waterline.
  I find OPERATOR at fault for the collision. I did not issue OPERATOR a citation.
  
  Voluntary Statement: Operator
  We were coming back from a day long fishing trip in Good Hope Bay. Upon passing the Hay Stack area, where there are a few islands and shallow spots, I had cleared this area. I had accidently hit a button on my fish finder, which has a gps on it, taking off the gps screen. I had been looking at the screen and had "light blinded" myself. When I looked up it took my eyes a while to adjust. I saw the island about 50 feet before running up on it. I had time to pull back on the throttle, and ran up about 23 feet onto the island which stuck out of the water about 2 feet.
