  On 07/22/2015, at about 06:00 p.m., this vessel was found unoccupied, cruising on Lacamas Lake located near Camas WA in Clark county. 
  
  This incident was not witnessed.  According to Law Enforcement, the Operator left his residence on 07/22/2015, sometime around 7:30 - 8:00 a.m., to go fishing on Lacamas Lake.  When he failed to return home a relative went to the lake to search for him.  Operator's vehicle was found parked at the Washington Fish & Wildlife boat ramp parking lot off Leadbetter Road on the North side of the lake. 
  
  At about 10:30 p.m., a call was made to 911 and a search for Operator was initiated by Camas PD and Clark CSO.  Operator's vessel was found on 7/23/2015, at about 10:30 p.m., unoccupied on the East end of the lake within a small bay.   
  
  The 11' 6" Inflatable Raft had been outfitted with a plywood bottom so that a person could stand up and cast/fish from it.  The 40lb thrust electric trolling motor was found "off" but in the number 1 "forward" speed position and the battery discharged, or in a "recharge" mode.  The rudder position was straight - dead ahead.  No fishing pole was found.  A tackle box, bait, cooler, and other affects were still on board. 
  
  It appears at sometime during his voyage, Operator fell overboard while the electric motor was in gear and was not able to get back to the boat.  He had no life jacket on.  His body has not yet been recovered.
