RedactedNarrative: Operator did not appear to be impaired and agreed to fill out a statement. After receiving the statement, I asked Operator if there was any damage to his vessel. He said he didn’t think there was but that he may have damaged the prop which would cost $300.00. Operator stated he is an experienced vessel operator but hasn't been in the eastern St. Mary’s River in about two years. Operator stated the accident occurred around 1605 and the conditions were windy and very choppy with white caps. Operator stated he was in the channel of the St. Mary’s River, headed in the direction of the ocean, passing green marker three on his right. Following this he veered slightly more right, believing himself to be in good water and ran aground. After realizing Occupant1 was hurt, he immediately attempted to render aid.
  
  Occupant1 suffered a laceration to her scalp from impacting the vessel console, she received stitches.  Occupant1 was sitting in the back of V01, on a bench affixed to the deck. Upon V01 making contact with a sandbar and running aground which made for an abrupt stop, Occupant1 was lunged forward toward the center console and her head made contact with a fishing rod holder which was affixed to the center console seat. Occupant1 received a laceration on her head, which was unable to be photo documented due to her hair.  Occupant1 was immediately rendered aid consisting of an ice pack. A good sam in another vessel, whom could not be identified, stopped and assisted. When I made contact with Occupant1 at the hospital, she was awake, conscious and spoke with me. She complained of head pain and couldn't state or identify any other injuries. I spoke with her doctor, whom told me she would be given a CAT scan and likely receive a few stitches (the doctor did not specify exactly how many stitches).
  
  
  The other female occupant expressed back pains and was being checked out by hospital staff.  She was sitting on a cooler directly behind the center console on V01. When V01 hit a sandbar and abruptly stopped and according to her statement, she flew forward approximately five feet and hit her chin. She had a small abrasion and contusion on her chin. She complained also of her back being sore between her shoulder blades.  When I encountered her at the hospital, she was awake, alert and standing. She didn't receive any treatment from EMS, however she indicated to me, she would like to be seen by the hospital, however she stated she was at the bottom of the list.;
