RedactedNarrative: Operator #1 stated in effect: I was sailing East heading back to the ramp and a big gust of wind blew us over. Eventually the boat began to sink and slowly overturned. We all ended up in the water and a fisherman came to our assistance and called 911. Shortly, after Clinton First Aid Squad responded and pulled us from the water, uprighted the boat and towed us back to the dock. 
  
  Investigation revealed:  Operator #1 was sailing in the Spruce Run Reservoir approximately 100 yards south of Sunset Point.  Operator #1 realized the water conditions were becoming choppy and attempted to navigate back to the Spruce Run Boat launch. The conditions of the water and daytime visibility had both diminished due to light rain and dark cloud cover. While traveling East towards the Spruce Run Boat launch, the vessel capsized to port side midship.  The vessel immediately became overweight and began to lose buoyancy. The vessel became submerged and rolled over causing the 2 occupants to be thrown into the water.  
  
  As a result of my investigation I have concluded that the vessel sunk due to two major contributing factors.  The operator failed to navigate his sail boat properly through the weather conditions that were present at the time of the incident.  Secondly, the weather (wind and choppy) contributed to the vessel becoming flooded and subsequently unstable enough to overturn.    
  
  The fisherman who witnessed the accident and assisted the victims left the scene upon arrival of the Clinton First Aid Squad vessel and his information was not documented. 
  
  All occupants were treated as a precautionary measure due to their age exposure to cold water. They were all released.
