RedactedNarrative: On Sunday August 3 , 2014 at approximately 13:30 , The vessel (V1) was traveling upstream near the Tooles bend area of Ft. Loudon Lake. According to Operator1 the vessel struck an unidentified object in the water causing the vessel''s steering to lock in an extreme left hand turn (possible machinery failure). Both Operator1 and V1 occupant described feeling a substantial amount of force upon striking the object. V1 occupant was sitting in the rear passengers seat. She saw Operator1 be ejected over the port side and was soon ejected over the port side herself. Both occupants were in the water with V1 circling them still under power. 
  
  The operator of V2 saw them in the water and drove over to assist. A type 4 PFD was thrown in efforts to retrieve the victims. Operator1 was retrieved and brought on board. With V1 still circling, V1 occupant swam to the rear of the boat to try to access the swim platform or ladder. She was struck from the rear by a wake (possibly wake from V1) causing her to come in contact with the spinning prop of V2. She sustained deep lacerations to her left quadricep and mid section. She sustained deep lacerations and a broken bone to her right wrist. She was brought on board and stabilized. Both victims were taken to a near by dock on the Blount County side.
