RedactedNarrative: On July 19th, 2021, I, CPO was notified of a sailboat that was grounded off of Sixty-Seventh Street Beach. 
  
  Two individuals were taken from the vessel and interviewed by the USCG. The two individuals were not injured. No damage was reported at this time. All safety equipment was present. 
  
  The owner gave a statement that he took down his sails at Calumet Harbor and used his motor to operate the vessel north toward 31st Street Harbor. After traveling north for a while, the boat motor of the vessel shut off. The operator turned the motor on and kept driving north. This occurred a few more times before the owner contacted his girlfriend at 31st Street Harbor and told her the situation. She contacted the Harbor Master who then called them a tow boat. The waves were causing the vessel to drift closer to shore. At this point the operator stated that he went to the bow to drop the anchor, but they grounded before he could deploy it. The tow boat arrived an hour later and stated the waves were to bad for them to pull the boat off that night and they would try in the morning. 
  
  The vessel was removed on July 22, 2021 and taken. 
  
  The vessel was removed from the water on July 26, 2021. I arrived at locale on July 26, 2021 at 4:33PM to inspect the damage and take pictures. 
  
  I did not recieve a report from CPD or USCG for the accident. I deemed the accident to be reportable when I inspected the damage of the vessel and saw that it was over $2000. 
  
  The total cost of the vessel is $66,000.
  
  The owner paid $15,000 to remove the vessel from the water and the insurance covered the other half of the removal cost.
