RedactedNarrative: In talking with the owner/operator, OP 1, I found that he had struck bird island.  OP 1 told me that he could see some color change in the water ahead of him and that he tried to quickly turn to avoid the obstacle, but that the vessel ended up striking the island.  OP 1 said the boat was still operable, and they tried to continue going.  That is when they noticed a lot of water coming into the vessel and they began to start bailing it out.  They called 911, and rangers responded.  Upon arrival it was noticed that the vessel was sitting low in the water and the aft starboard side was particularly low.  All occupants were wearing a PFD.  The Rangers took the adult female and two children onto the rescue vessel, and attached a tow line to the bow eye of the damaged vessel.  OP 1 stayed on board the disabled vessel to bail water while we began our way back to the Provo Marina.  Upon arriving in the Provo Marina, the adult female and children were quickly checked by EMS personnel and released.  OP 1 was assisted in loading his vessel onto the trailer and it was pulled from the water where it drained.  The damage was as noted in the damage section of this report.  OP 1 told the Rangers that he was unfamiliar with where bird island was, and did not know until it was too late.

  I received an estimated quote to fix damages from a local repair shop in the amount of $14,400.00.  I filled in that field on the report and submitted the report.
