RedactedNarrative: Operator 1 was operating his deck boat on tim''s ford res. On sunday 06/14/2020 near the northwest side of mansford bridge at tim''s ford state park when he encountered a thunderstorm that he decided to put his boat bow aground and secure it to a tree on bank with a bowline because he had multiple passengers including children and one handicap adult. 
  
  At or about 14:10 the wind made waves and rain began to fill vessel faster than the bilge pump could offload water and the vessel''s transom got lower in the water as an access door in the transom was flooded through with water from the lakes waves worsening the vessels condition until it was full of water and sunken to the bottom at shore with the rails and seating above the waterline. 
  
  All passengers were removed safely to the tim''s ford marina courtesy ramp via twra patrol boats and tn state park rangers via their patrol vehicles. The franklin co., tn rescue squad pumped the water from the hull of the vessel and it was able to be towed back to tim''s ford marina with operator 1 on board and was loaded on its trailer to look for damages. The stereo system (including amp and speakers) was wet, the gas tank took on water, the motor was partially submerge, and a piece of the front left bumper rail was torn loose. Operator 1 estimated damages at $2800.00.
