RedactedNarrative: On 5/4/19, at approximately 1250 hours, I, Officer of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), was dispatched to a possible boating accident with injuries on Perdido Beach. Once on scene, I found a vessel (Later identified as DO1257823, "Row Sea" from Orange Beach, AL) that was beached, listing to port, and taking on water at the stern from high surf. There was a white male seated in the front passenger seat of the Emergency Response Vehicle already on scene, and when I was close enough to talk to him I identified myself and was able to confirm that he was un-injured, and was refusing medical transport. Subject confirmed that he was the sole operator/occupant of the vessel.  I asked Subject to tell me what happened and what led him and his vessel to end up on the beach. Subject replied, "Drifted", "About 3 miles out". I asked him to clarify what he meant, and he said, "Okay, went to sleep, drifted, and ended up here". Subject confirmed that he was the only person onboard and the only
  operator of the vessel.
  	All evidence gathered on scene and in interviews indicate that Subject consumed too much alcohol, failed to anchor his vessel offshore, fell asleep and allowed his vessel to drift and become beached.  The owner/operator was arrested for BUI and the vessel was salvaged throughout the night.  The vessel was salvaged/towed to the owner's residence in Orange Beach, Alabama later the following morning.
