  According to Law Enforcement, the vessel, operated was fishing on Lake Bryan on the Snake River with passenger. Operator estimated they were going about 15mph. The navigation lights were activated, but he couldn’t see where he was going or where his location in the river was. It was pitch dark as he returned to Boyer Park, and he was disoriented with only a low power head lamp for light. He didn’t know how to use the GPS unit and when he saw the Boyer Park lights, he turned right and increased power. He didn’t realize he was already directly next to the southern shore. When he turned, he struck a submerged rock. The stern of the vessel was forced into the rocky shore which is likely how his propeller blades sheared off. The foam in the vessel’s hull kept it from sinking.
