RedactedNarrative: A call was received in reference to a vessel sinking offshore of Port Canaveral. The vessel was taking on water and three passengers were in the water. A good Samaritan picked up the passengers and brought them back to the boat ramp. One individual was transported while the other two were not. I was able to locate the operator and receive the required information to complete the boating accident report. No individuals were injured and the vessel completely sunk and was not recovered. 
  OP1 stated, while being translated, that there were two other occupants on the vessel. He stated that the vessel began taking on water near red buoy 10 and all three of them put on PFDs. OP1 stated the bilge pump was not working so they all got in the water and held onto the buoy. He stated that the vessel completely sunk, and another vessel picked them up and took them to the vessel ramp.
  On October 28th,2022 I met OP1 to gather the remaining information. He stated the vessel, which was identified by Florida registration number, was given to him from a friend. He stated be never transferred the vessel to his name.
