RedactedNarrative: I responded to Bob's Fishing Hole in Chesapeake, in reference to a boat accident that happened earlier in the day. I made contact with the operator of the boat. He told me that at around 0545 hours, he was operating his boat in the Northwest River during the "blast-off" of a bass fishing tournament. Several boats were in a small area, and the wake from other vessels created a following sea state, which overcame his boat, and it took a sharp left into a cypress tree on the shoreline. He sustained a minor injury to his knee. He did not wish to seek medical treatment. The stem of the bow was damaged to the point where there was a hole in extreme front the bow, including the top cap, rub rail, and hull, but was above the waterline. The cause of the accident appears to be inexperience handling a boat in following a sea state.
