RedactedNarrative: On 10/29/16 at approximately 8:35 PM, I was advised of a personal injury boat accident at Lake Holiday.  When I arrived, I spoke with Lake Holiday Security Officer who stated the operator was being taken to the hospital, but smelled very strongly of alcoholic beverage.  I then spoke with Sandwich Fire who stated operator was definitely intoxicated and smelled strongly of alcoholic beverage.  He stated his co workers would both agree with his observations.  
  
  At this time I began documenting the scene of the crash.  I spoke to CPO and asked that he go to the hospital and speak with Operator.  A few moments later, witness to the accident arrived back on scene.  He stated he heard the accident and ran down to see what happened.  He stated the aft of the vessel was still on the dock and the motor was running at high RPMs.  He stated he pushed the vessel in to the water and turn off the engine.  He began yelling and looking for any occupants. He said approximately 15-20 seconds later he heard noise in the water.  He began pulling on a rope attached to the boat and noticed Operator was tangled in the rope.  He then jumped in the water and pulled Operator to shore.  Operator stated he was the only one onboard and gave subject his wife''s phone number.  Subject stated he tried to call Operator’s wife, but the number went straight to voicemail.  He stated he was afraid she might be in the water and Operator did not remember because he appeared intoxicated.
  
  Subject and I took his boat on the water and attempted to locate any signs of other possible occupants.  Meanwhile, I had Officer go to the Operator residence on the Lake and attempt to locate her.  Approximately 15 min later, he stated he had made contact with Operator’s wife.  I informed her of what happened and told her that he was transported to the hospital.  
  
  Next, I headed to the Hospital to assist CPO with OUI processing.  Upon arriving at the hospital and speaking with Operator, I immediately smelled a strong odor of alcoholic beverage.  Operator had red glassy bloodshot eyes, was thick tongued, and had slurred speech.  Operator’s wife informed me he currently had a revoked drivers license from previous DUI arrests.  Throughout the interaction with CPO and myself, Operator was uncooperative, had trouble remembering things, and did not recall the events of the accident the same way the witness did.  CPO completed the arrest for OUI.  Operator refused to submit to any chemical tests and was intentionally evasive in answering questions (see CPO report for OUI arrest). 
  
  Additional witness statements will be attached in a supplemental.
  
  Operator was operating his vessel North through a No wake Zone at a speed higher than No Wake Speed.  He struck the main support poles on the South portion of the boat dock.  The vessel his hard enough to bend the support poles over and caused a large hole in the bow of the vessel.  The vessel left the water and left prop and skeg marks on the platform of the dock.  It came to rest on the dock but began taking on water.  As it took on water it slid off the dock and became mostly submerged.  The navigational lights were not on when I arrived.  The boat was still running until the Subject turned it off proving Operator was not wearing his lanyard cutoff switch.   
  
  At some point during the accident, Operator hit his chin on the vessel causing a deep laceration.  He was ejected from the vessel and found tangled in the rope attached to the bow.  He complained of right shoulder pain at the hospital as well.
