RedactedNarrative: On july 15 2017 i ranger first class (rfc) and corporal (cpl) responded to a boating incident at port royale marina on lake lanier. The victim received a laceration to his right calf. According to the victim and other occupants of the vessel. Victim was standing in the water at the bow of a rented pontoon boat and was trying to pull the boat up onto the beach to secure it better so that it did not drift away. While he was pulling the boat towards him he slipped and the skeg of the port side pontoon went over his leg causing a laceration. 
  
  The vessel was not running at the time and no one was seated at the helm. The operator of the vessel rented the vessel. However at the time of the incident operator was assisting victim with pulling the pontoon forward onto the beach. I spoke with all occupants of the vessel and nearby swimmers that were in the same party. All witnesses had a collaborated the story that was told to me by victim. I did not observe any indicators of any alcohol consumption on either victim or operator. Victim received treatment by first responders and was transported to the hospital by his spouse for further evaluation and treatment.
