RedactedNarrative: On 1 August 2016, at approximately 20:00 a very intense storm suddenly developed producing very heavy rains and heavy winds from the north.  I went to the boat ramp at Sand Hollow to assist boaters getting off the water.  I observed approximately 5-6 foot waves hitting the docks.  Some concerned park guests approached me and said there was a capsized boat on the south beach and another boat was missing.  
  
  I rushed to the south side of the park where I observed a boat near Cotton Tree Cove that appeared swamped. I contacted the individuals in the area and was informed all occupants were able to get off the vessel.  While speaking with the individuals, I was informed that the missing vessel was located safe on the far east shore.
  
  SUBJECT was very irritated about the situation and wanted me to tow his vessel.  I informed SUBJECT that I could not tow the vessel at the time as there was lightning over head and I needed to attend to other guests.  I left a driver statement for SUBJECT as his group left the area to attempt to bail out the vessel and tow it to the south dock.
  
  I left the area and attended to other incidents in the park and at Quail Creek as I was the only ranger on duty.
  
  Follow Up:
  SUBJECT and his party returned the following morning to give the information for the report including witness statements and insurance for the vessel.  Staff informed me that SUBJECT was very upset that I left the area and "did not help".  Witness statements indicate they were able to float the vessel and get it on a trailer.
  
  End of Report.
