THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL #1 WAS ON SHORE WHEN HE NOTICED THEVESSEL WAS LISTING TO THE PORT SIDE. OPERATOR SWAM TO THE VESSEL AND OBSERVED THAT IT WAS TAKING ON WATER AND THE BILGE PUMP WAS NOT KEEPING UP WITH THE AMOUT OF WATER ON BOARD. 
  
  THE OPERATOR ATTEMPTED TO GET THE VESSEL ON PLANE TO ASSIST WITH DRAINING THE WATER BUT HAD TOO MUCH WATER TO GAIN ANY SPEED. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO GET THE VESSEL ON PLANE THE VESSEL STRUCK A SANDBAR, CAUSING THE VESSEL TO CAPSIZE.
