RedactedNarrative: V1 hit an unknown object in the water and started to take on water which caused the vessel to capsize. 
  On 5/27/2022, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, while looking into another vessel incident at US Coast Guard Station Fort Pierce, was informed of a vessel that had capsized in the Fort Pierce Inlet around 1430 that afternoon. 
  
  I was told the US Coast Guard responded to the capsized vessel and took two people to the Stan Blum Boat ramp. The US Coast Guard was then notified that the vessel was not salvaged and left in the area capsized. I was provided with the vessel registration number and a telephone number for the subjects that called the US Coast Guard. The vessel was located around Marker 2 in the Fort Pierce Inlet. 
  
  I checked the vessel registration and found that it was registered to a person named OP1 and match the name and number of the person the US Coast Guard gave to me. 
  I called the subject and asked what his plan was with the vessel and told me he was coming into the fort Pierce inlet and the seas were 5 - 6 foot. While coming it, he hit something in the water. This caused the anchor and line to come off the boat and get caught on the engine motor. When he raise the motor he found that he did not have a propeller on the engine any more.  He called the Us Coast Guard at this time. Soon after this he realized that he was taking on water and the vessel was sinking. He stated there was a large hole in the bottom of the boat. 
  
  The US Coast Guard responded and removed the 2 subjects from the water.
