RedactedNarrative: On May 14, 2015, at approximately 1318 hours, a boating accident occurred involving one vessel. While the vessel was underway work was being completed when an elderly white male fell into a bilge compartment of a large cabin vessel that was adrift. The elderly man complained of severe pain in his right side and right knee. 
  
  After Victim had finished having his injuries x-rayed he provided me with a written statement. He stated that while traveling up the coastline the vessel had engine problems and that they had opened the bilge hatch to work on the motors. The men stopped for lunch but left the hatch open. After lunch Victim was carrying the used plates back downstairs and forgot that the hatch was open. He stepped into the open hatch with his right foot, falling down and hitting his right ribs on the top of the hatch. Victim advised that the vessel was drifting when the incident took place. 
  
  On May 19, Victim contacted me via cell phone and advised that the x-rays showed he had bruised ribs and a broken left foot. No law enforcement action was taken.
