RedactedNarrative: I, Officer (FWC), at approximately 1630 hours on 6/29/19 was on water patrol on the St Johns River SB near channel marker 23 north of SR40 when I saw a damaged vessel (FL6862PM) on the east bank 
  The vessel was damaged with broken glass and blood covering much of the passenger area and seats.
   Operator had lacerations on his right arm and blood covering his body. Operator stated that he was headed south when his steering went out and caused him to pull to the right and crash into the west bank of the river; he then continued under power in a circle until he came to a stop on the east bank where he was found. Operator admitted in an interview that he was going between 38-40 mph at the time of the accident.
  The vessel was impounded (see tow receipt). 
  After several attempts I was unable to find a crash site on the east bank of the river. There was also no indication of mechanical failure for the vessel.
  
  Operator had lacerations on his right arm and torso which required medical treatment
