RedactedNarrative: SYNOPSIS 
  
  Personal Water Craft (PWC) with three individuals on it, two under 18, missing for hours. Father called 911, and due to the quick response, the three individuals were found safely on shore. The PWC was recovered and loaded onto the trailer. 
  
  PERSONAL WATERCRAFT
  
  The PWC was sitting with the bow in the air and the stern was completely submerged. I informed command of my location. We pulled the PWC up out of the water, and that was when we noticed that the seat was gone and the PWC was just submerged. 
  
  During the time that we were trying to see if there was anyone on the PWC that was when subjects called that they had found the three individuals at Chicken Creek West and that they were bringing them to Mud Creek. This was great news and we are thankful for the assistance.
  
  The PWC was recovered and we assisted the family by putting the machine on the trailer.  
  
  DAMAGE TO THE VESSEL 
  
  On Aug 1st, 2016 it was still undetermined the damage of the vessel. The rental company, Rev 6 Sports, stated that they were still "unswamping" the vessel and didn't know the extent of the damage to the machine. They guessed that it would be from $3,000 to $4,000 to do all the repairs on the machine. 
  
  STATEMENT OF OPERATOR
  
  Operator stated that they were tubing and the machine sucked up the rope in the impeller. During that time they tried to get the rope out. He turned the vessel over to see if he could get the rope out of the prop. They couldn't get the rope out and so he took the seat off due to horrible weather, and all three of them swam for shore. I was very impressed with operator and his actions during this time on assisting his family to make it to shore safely.
