RedactedNarrative: On 8/21/16 i was dispatched to single vessel boat accident that occurred in the venice by pass canal around noon. On arrival I observed a single vessel that had driven up onto the rocks in the venice by pass canal just north of the circus bridge.  Venice pd was securing the vessel to the rocks so that it would not drift away or sink. i was told by ems that all 3 patients would be taken to sarasota memorial hospital. 
  
  i headed to sarasota memorial hospital to get the occupants information and extent of injuries.  Operator stated that his wife and grandson were in the front of the boat when his wife asked the grandson to get her a drink out of the cooler.  As the grandson was at the back of the vessel getting a drink out of the cooler operator turned around, looking over his shoulder to see what he was doing and telling him to get back to the front of the vessel where he could see him.  
  
  It was at the time that he "steered into the stare" and drove the vessel onto the rocks.  Operator was pinned between the seat and the center console that had broke free with his grandson underneath him.  He eventually was able to free himself and jumped onto the rocks so that he could help his grandson.  His wife was thrown towards the front of the vessel. Operator and his grandson both received broken noses and minor cuts and bruises.  Operator also lost a few teeth.  Wife received bruising/contusions to her torso.  She had several deep bruises to her back and legs as a result of impact with boat.; The grandson had a broken nose and several small cuts on his right side as a result of impact with the center console.;operator broke his nose and lost several of his teeth.
