RedactedNarrative: On Saturday, May 27, 2017, I, Officer was notified via FWC dispatch and United States Coast Guard of a vessel that had sunk near Crab Island in Choctawhatchee Bay at approximately 11:30 AM.
  
  Investigator and I launched my vessel from the US Coast Guard Station and found the sunken vessel nearly 100% submerged on the north side of Crab Island. All occupants were removed from the water with no injuries and accounted for. 
  
  The boat owner said that they had just launched from Joe's Bayou Boat Ramp about 15 minutes prior to the boat sinking. He said that as they came in to the Idle Speed/No Wake Zone the boat started taking on water extremely quick and within a matter of minutes it was underwater and had turned over. Owner said that he remembers putting the plug in the boat before they left the house that morning. However, his girlfriend said she seemed to remember seeing it in the cup holder after they had already put the boat in the water.
  
  The vessel was later removed from the water by Tow Boat US.
