RedactedNarrative: According to the operator, subject1 and operator were duck hunting in caffee bay saturday morning on january 5th.  At about 8:30 both subject and operator were out of the boat retrieving ducks that they had shot.  
  
  When subject1 turned around, he noticed that the boat had come loose from where it was on the shore and was drifting away. Subject1 stated that he was able to catch back up to the boat along the shore, but water had already started to come in over the stern of the boat due to the high winds.  Subject1 started the engine and tried to put the boat in gear but there was burlap caught around the prop preventing it from working properly.  
  
  Subject1 stated that the boat continued to take on water from the stern until the engine went under.  The boat became submerged with only the front part of the bow remaining above water.  Marine fisheries officers were able to pick up subject1 and operator and bring them back to swan quarter. Their boat remained where it had sunk.  Drugs and alcohol did not play a part in this boating incident.
