RedactedNarrative: On 7/29/17 at approximately 1815 hours the passenger of a 22ft Grady White recreational fishing vessel fell while the vessel was attempting to get up on plane.  
  
   The vessel had travelled to Havre de Grace from North East Isles Marina and the group of five passengers had gone to church and lunch in Havre de Grace.  Upon returning to the North East river area the group sent some time relaxing.  The operator admitted to have two beers over a several hour period, which was confirmed by the group and based on this officer training knowledge and experience the operator was not intoxicated. 
  
   The owner and operator of the vessel decided to get the vessel up on plane and announced to everyone to hold on.  The passenger was standing up at the time, he remembers holding onto a hand rail but he lost his grip and fell backwards into a rack of rod holders near the transom of the vessel.  The impact was severe enough that he did not want to get up and remained seated.  The operator of the vessel drove the vessel to the marina from where they had departed,  an approximate 5 minute ride.  Upon reaching the marina the injured passenger could still not stand up and was complaining of back pain.  At this time EMS was contacted and North East Fire Company arrived shortly there after.  He was transported to Union Hospital, Elkton.
  
   There were no violations.
  
   All events occurred in Cecil County.
