RedactedNarrative: On 7/14/2017 at approximately 1650 hours Lake Pleasant Regional Park was hit with a severe thunderstorm coming from the north end of the lake. The storm produced winds upwards of 60 MPH as well as 6-8 foot swels.
  
  After finishing a boat stop on AZ watercraft, they were advised to head into the boat ramp as the winds were picking up and it was starting to rain. Deputy and I headed to the boat house to get out of the weather. The watercraft v1 attempted to follow but was unable to keep pace.
  
  At approximately 1738 hours i was waved down in the area south of Cottonwood Cove on the west shorline of Lake Pleasant by a male standing next to a red and white Supra motorized watercraft. The boat was facing north with the port side on shore and the starboard side under water. This was the same watercraft from the boat stop prior to the storm hitting.
  
  Operator1 was waving us down and stated he was unable to keep up with us when the waves became too big and started to come over the bow of his watercraft. Operator1 stated as the waves came over his bow the watercraft began to sink. He stated he was close to shore and turned the boat towards the shoreline. The watercraft was washed into the shoreline from the waves and the family was able to get to the tree line and somewhat out of the elemnets. There were no injuries sustained by any of the five parties aboard the watercraft.
  
  Deputy and myself were able to get all 5 subjects aboard our watercraft and back to safety.
