RedactedNarrative: Investigation Revealed: Operator 1 was attempting to negotiate an unmarked channel in the Northern portion of Great Egg Inlet near the Longport Jetty in 3'-5' seas. As Vessel 1 neared the end of the jetty, Operator 1 negotiated an incoming wave bow first. As Vessel 1 crested the wave and traveled down into the trough a second wave broke over the bow of Vessel 1. The force from the wave broke the glass in the windscreen and the deck became flooded with water. The engine subsequently stalled and the weight of the water on board was significant enough to sink the stern of the vessel thus, allowing additional water to spill over the transom. All occupants on board were able to utilize a P.F.D. and remained on board until a Towboat US vessel arrived and began towing Vessel 1 back into the Great Egg Inlet. At this time State Police and United States Coast Guard vessels arrived on scene and escorted the vessels into the Great Egg Inlet. Once in calmer water all occupants were transferred to the Coast Guard Vessel and brought to Seaview Harbor Marina. Operator 1 sustained minor lacerations due to the broken glass. Victim 1, Victim 2, and Victim 3 all suffered minor lacerations as a result of the broken glass. Victim 4 sustained minor lacerations due to the broken glass and appeared to be exhibiting signs of mild shock. All occupants of Vessel 1 were transported to Shore Memorial Hospital by Longport E.M.S. as a precaution. All were treated and released later on this date. Vessel 1 sustained moderate damage to the windscreen and heavy water damage due to partially sinking.
