RedactedNarrative: On August 7th, I was notified of a boating accident.  At approximately 9:00 p.m., a vessel was traveling north in Escambia Bay heading toward the mouth of Escambia River.  The operator OP1 was looking at the vessels GPS to assist her in navigation. The only passenger who is also the vessel's owner, was shining a flashlight to assist with navigation. When they approached the river's entrance OP1 ran aground on a protective barrier / breaker.  The breaker prevents erosion to a small unnamed island at the mouth of the river.  
  When the vessel ran aground OP1 was thrown forward and collided with the vessels steering wheel and console.  Owner called 911 for assistance.  Fire fighters with Escambia County arrived and assisted both occupants to the nearest boat ramp which was at Owner's Fish Camp.  OP1 was transported to the hospital for treatment.  I spoke to Owner, and she described what happened.  I brought Owner home and agreed to meet with her the next day.
  On August the 8th, I spoke Owner and she reported the OP1 had broken her sternum when she impacted the steering wheel.  She also told me that she contacted her insurance company and arranged for Seatow to remove her vessel from the breaker.  I met Seatow at the crash site and took photos.; OP1:When vessel ran aground, the operator broke her sternum after impacting steering wheel. She also lacerated her leg, which did not need stiches and bruised her head.
