  Investigation Revealed:  On the above date, I was detailed to the Delaware Bay near Ship John Lighthouse in Greenwich Township, in reference to a boating accident.  The report was for a male that sustained a head injury, from being struck by the boom.  At the time of the call I was in the Cohansey River in Greenwich Township.  I stopped at Hancock's Harbor Marina and picked up EMS that was staging to provide medical attention. I also picked up the victims son, so that he could pilot the vessel back safely.  Upon my arrival I observed a 31' vessel identified as a 2001 Catalina 310 bearing NJ registration.  The vessel had no visible damage and I observed two people on the vessel.  The operator had a contusion on the left side of his head as a result of being struck by the sailboat's boom.  The victim and his wife were then escorted to my vessel where they were evaluated by EMS.  The owners son and grand daughter took ownership of the vessel and piloted the vessel back to Hancock's Harbor.
