RedactedNarrative: On 09/19/2021 around approximately 5:30 PM, Maryland Natural Resources Police responded to Easton Memorial Hospital to talk with a patient that was involved in a boat accident. Talbot County 911 made the report and advised that there was only one patient, who had sustained an injury to one of his fingers. 
       When I arrived at the hospital I made contact with OPERATOR 1 who was receiving medical treatment from the doctor. The tip of his ring finger on his left hand had been cut off from the accident. OP1 advised that he was assisting a sailboat in the location of Deep Water Point in the Miles river that had lost all power to their engines. He was going to side tow them back in the marina at the Maritime Museum. While in the process of trying to tie the boats together there was some chop from the waves that caused his finger to get caught in-between the two vessels.   
      OP1 advised that there was no damage to his vessel or the sailboat that he was attempting to tow in. OP1 also advised that he was the only one injured when the accident occurred. OP1 had one other individual on board his vessel who was his wife. They brought the boat back to the house where it is kept in a slip at which point 911 was called so OP1 could go to the emergency room. 
      OP1’s wife filled out a witness statement that has been added to this report. MNRP conducted a follow up to get all of the vessel information from the two vessels involved and to interview the remaining people. MNRP will be handling the boat accident report as it is reportable. OP1 was advised of the report number and I gave him all of my information.
