RedactedNarrative: On June 22, 2019, at approximately 01:00, Operator1 was operating a 1997 17''9" Ranger bass boat on Douglas Lake. He was fishing in a club bass tournament out of the dam boat launch. A line of strong storms rolled through the area with very high winds. Operator1 stopped his vessel to put rain gear on when the waves swamped his vessel. The vessel was nearly all submerged  when we tied it up to the bank on the Big Island. He was able to remove the vessel and the insurance company totaled it out at $8800.
