RedactedNarrative: On the date of 2/20/16 at approximately 6:10p.m., I was dispatched to a vessel that sunk on Lake Panasofkee in Sumter County. The occupants of the vessel were rescued by a good Samaritan and brought to shore. There were no injuries. I met with the vessel operator/owner at Tracy's Point Boat Ramp.
  
  Operator advised that he and his family were fishing and not in motion on the vessel at the time the sinking. Operator noticed the back of the vessel sitting low in the water, he opened the bait well and noticed it was full of water so he began to bail the water. Operator also turned on his bilge pump which was not working. Operator then tried to power up to drain the water and when he put it in gear the stern dropped and water came over the stern. The vessel then flipped over within about 30 seconds. Operator said they were in the water for about 20-30 minutes before being picked up.
  
  On 2/20/16 Sea Tow was able to salvage the vessel. I observed that the drain plug was still in the vessel when it was recovered. I inspected the hull for damage and was unable to observe any. Operator said that he had the bilge pump, bait well pump and wiring replaced about 3 weeks before this incident.
  
  Operator contacted me after taking the vessel to a mechanic and it was found out that the overboard discharge was pumping water into the hull and the bilge pump was clogged up.
  
  Nothing further.
