RedactedNarrative: Owner/operator stated that upon approaching the Hagatna Channel, he noticed a small vessel struggling while entering the Hagatna Channel.  He then decided to execute a U-turn turning left going out to the open ocean to avoid a collision and for his safety.  
  
  While making a left turn, a large swell lifted the stern of the vessel and he lost control and was pounded by another swell causing the vessel to run-aground between the red channel marker and a man-made peninsula and was pushed further into the reef.
