RedactedNarrative: On 11-13-2020 a boat accident occurred on Cave run lake in Menifee County, Kentucky. Kentucky State Police received a call from OPERATOR 1 who said that he had hit an object under the water and the boat he was operating was sinking. 
  
   I was dispatched toward the scene at 14:45. I called OPERATOR 1 to let him know I was a couple of counties away and also to assess his situation. He stated they had hit a stump while in the channel which stopped the vessel and it then began to take on water.  
  
  He reported  they had tied off to the stump next to the vessel. He reported the boat was stable at that time. I arrived at the scene at 15:24 in the Leatherwood area on Cave Run Lake. There I found OPERATOR 1 along with a passenger. They reported no injuries and they were brought aboard my vessel and transported back to the Longbow boat ramp where they had put their boat on the water.  Menifee EMS met us at the courtesy dock where they refused any treatment. The vessel they were in belonged to another person whom they were attempting to buy it from. 
  
  They had been out on a test drive then the vessel was damaged. They were in a marked channel at the time of the accident. However at this time of year when the lake is at winter pool this portion of the lake is extremely hazardous due to standing timber. The vessel actually was stuck on a stump. It had to be floated up off of the stump tot get it dislodged. I was contacted and informed the vessel was finally off the water on 11-29-2020. The boat dealership who recovered the boat was given the vessel for salvage. The vessel was a total loss, estimated approximately $4000 plus in damage.
