RedactedNarrative: On 4/10/16 at 0800 hours I was contacted by subject via phone.  Subject stated he was out on El Dorado Reservoir the previous night for a bow fishing tournament.  Subject said at approximately 0300 hours, he was unsure where he was and was in far more shallow water than he intended and the prop hit ground.
   
   Subject stated he kept the motor part of the way down because he was afraid to lose total power with the way the wind was that night as it was blowing around 30 mph.  Subject said he eventually got the boat to shore near where the accident occurred.  Subject said he tied the boat off and left it there as it was swamped with water.  
   
  I asked Subject where the boat was currently located and Subject stated it was approximately 2 or 3 coves to the South of Sailboat Cove.  Subject asked what he needed to do and I told Subject to get with his insurance company and find a company to salvage the boat as we didn''t have the equipment to do so.  I also told Subject once he got the boat off the water I would need to meet him to fill out a boat accident report.  Subject stated it would probably be later in the week and I said that was fine.  I met Subject at Mid Kansas Marine in Andover Kansas on 4/15/16 at 1520 hours.  I looked the boat over and saw extensive damage to the prop of the boat as well as several dings and dents to the rear hull of the boat.  Subject stated while the boat was tied up, it was in shallow water on rocks and that was where most of that damage came from.  I had a worker at the shop give me an estimate of the damage and was told it would be at least 3300 dollars.  I completed the boat accident report and provided Subject with my card and the case number on it.
