RedactedNarrative: On friday, may 10 , 2019 around 15:30, operator1 was out fishing with his friend in bogue inlet with his 19' challenger.  As they were packing up to head back to shore they noticed water in the back of the boat.  They started the bilge pump, put on life vests and started bailing water with a bucket but couldn't keep up because the boat was filling with water fast.  So they called mayday on channel 16.  Towboat captain, was near bogue inlet heading to a call in hammock's beach when he heard the call and turned around and started heading that way.  
  
  Meanwhile, operator1's vessel was quickly filling with water until it eventually capsized in bogue inlet, putting both men in the water.  Two by-standars saw what happened and headed toward the vessel.  One of the by-standars also called mayday on channel 16 and said he saw a boat flipped over and that two people were in the water.  
  
  When towboat captain fuller arrived on scene both men had already been pulled out of the water by the good samaritans.  Captain then got a line on the vessel that had capsized and started towing it toward deeper water and then was able to flip the vessel right side up.  The vessel had to be towed back to beaufort because the current in the inlet was too rough to tow the vessel back to dudley's like Operator1 had requested.  Operator1 and occupant were taken to the coast guard station emerald isle to be checked out by emerald isle ems and then were released.  No one was injured during this incident and the estimated damage to the vessel was $5,000 along with $2,500 in other property damage such as fishing equipment, coolers, and gps unit.
