RedactedNarrative: On June 18, 2016, Operator1 was operating his 2005 22 foot Blue Wave vessel with passenger.  The two were on their way to the Carteret County side of the Neuse River with intentions of fishing.  Once they arrived at their destination, Operator1 was operating the vessel at idle speed when he hit a submerged object which caused the engine to stall out.  
  
  Due to the strong north winds, the vessel was quickly blown into shallow water and up against the shoreline.  Due to the shallow water and strong winds, Operator1 was unable to move the vessel to deeper water without assistance.  
  
  Operator1 then called TowBoatUS. Shortly thereafter a towboat from Deaton Yacht Services was dispatched to Operator1's location.  Tow Boat arrived on scene at approximately 15:15. Once on scene, the tow boat operators made contact with Operator1 and arranged for towing the vessel away from shore into deeper water.  The tow boat vessel gave a tow rope to Operator1 and he then attached the rope to the bow of the grounded vessel.  
  
  Once the vessel was pulled off the shoal, Operator1 started the engine and started to make forward headway towards the tow boat vessel.  this was not what the tow boat operators wanted Operator1 to do.  In the process Operator1 incidentally got the tow rope in the prop and disabled the vessel a second time.  At this point, the vessel became sideways with strong winds and waves.  
  
  The vessel immediately started taking on water and capsized shortly after.  Both Operator1 and passenger fell out of the boat. The tow boat crew helped both passengers onboard the tow boat. The tow boat crew then left the boat on the shoal and escorted the two passengers to the Oriental Boat Ramp.  On June 20th at 09:00, Tow Boat went back to the capsized vessel, turned the vessel over, and towed the vessel back to Deaton Yachts Service Yard where it was placed back on its trailer.  The vessel was a center console bay boat with a T top.  Due to the style of vessel being capsized on a shoal in high wind conditions the vessel had extensive damage.
