RedactedNarrative: On 7/14/2018 during the Blue Angel's Air Show at approximately 1415 Hrs, at approximately two miles West of the Pensacola Fishing Pier in the Gulf of Mexico, a 34 foot Sea Ray with 11 persons onboard started to take on water. All the occupants donned PFD's and were picked up by a good Samaritan vessel. The Sea Ray sank and was later recovered by Tow Boat and towed to Mac's marina in Pensacola. 
  
  Operator 1 provided a sworn statement to what had happened. He stated that during the Air Show the stern of his vessel started to get lower and lower in the water. He attempted to use the bilge pumps to pump out the water but they were not catching up. Everyone put on life jackets and left the boat and were picked up by good Samaritan vessels. On 7/18/2018 I went back to Mac's marina and took photos of the Sea Ray and I talked with the Tow Boat Captain. He informed me when they were righting the vessel and pumping it out they found that the Exhaust hose to the engine had become separated. This is a 3 and 1/2 inch hose and in his opinion caused the vessel to sink.
