RedactedNarrative: Watercraft #1 was underway, northbound at approximately 4200 RPM. It was in the channel and heading toward Lock and Dam #3. It struck a floating tree in the river. 
  
  Operator #1 didn't see the tree, but felt it when the watercraft hit it. The watercraft was still running and the operator shut off the engine. 
  
  He then noticed water was entering the engine compartment. The watercraft was pulled onto shore at the Red Wing Wildlife League Beach. The watercraft's bilge system was unable to keep water out of the compartment. Watercraft #1 was towed from the scene. There were no injuries, and alcohol was not a factor.
