RedactedNarrative: One hour delayed response to a report of a vessel grounding with a fatality in the area of Ole River at the East end of Ono Island due to jurisdictional questions.  Escambia County fire-medics and FWC officer on scene indicated that two occupants were transported via ambulance to Baptist Hospital in Pensacola for treatment.  A third subject was still on scene deceased.  
  Initial investigation showed the vessel was travelling around the east end of Ono Island attempting to enter the ICW west bound, struck a sand island, rotated counter-clockwise about two hundred degrees in the air and landed on the t-top and starboard bow quarter, crushing victim1 in the process.  Statements given to the fire-medics on scene from the other two occupants indicated that victim1 was the operator.  The Baldwin County coroner was notified, and the body was transported to the Alabama Department Of Forensic Sciences for autopsy.  The vessel was released to Sea Tow to right, tow, and secure at their facility.  Subsequent investigation indicates that subject2 was the operator at the time of the crash.
