  NARRATIVE
  
  On May 15th, 2021, at approximately 1705, while patrolling Ute Lake State Park in a fully marked law enforcement pickup truck while wearing a fully marked law enforcement uniform, I, Park Superintendent, was notified by central dispatch concerning a vessel that was in need of assistance. While responding to the marina to launch the park patrol vessel, I contacted Marine Enforcement Officer 1 for assistance. I launched the patrol vessel and proceeded to the incident location. Upon arrival to the incident, I saw a vessel completely up out of the water. Contact was made with an individual identified as Operator, the operator of the vessel. I asked Operator if anyone was hurt. He stated that one of the passengers, Injured, could have possibly hurt her back. I contacted dispatch for an ambulance to meet us at the Ute Lake Marina. I asked Injured if she wanted to be placed on a back board and she stated no. I assisted Operator with putting Injured onto the park patrol vessel for transport to the marina. While en route to the marina, I asked Operator what had happened. He told me that he was wailing out a storm and trying to cruise in a direction that would keep hail from coming into the vessel, striking the passengers. He then told me that he thought that the speed the vessel was traveling was approximately 15 miles an hour and that the hail had started coming down extremely hard, causing poor visibility, which made it difficult to navigate. The navigational system failed and with the extreme weather, Operator lost his sense of direction. By the time he noticed his direction of travel, it was too late for him to react and turn away from the shoreline. The vessel came to rest approximately 30 feet from the water's edge up on the shore. A short time later we arrived at the marina, where Injured was examined by Logan Emergency Medical Services, at which time she refused treatment from EMS and signed a letter of refusal. She was transported to Dan C. Trigg Memorial Hospital via personal transportation. 
  
  The following day, 5/16/2021, I transported Operator back to the incident area to retrieve his personal items. I asked Operator on the condition of Injured, he stated that Injured was checked out by medical personnel and released. Later that day, Operator was able to remove the vessel from the shoreline and tow it to the marina and place the vessel on a trailer. No further action taken at this time.
