RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 (V1) was attempting to anchor near the beach area of Anclote Key Preserve State Park; specifically, near the southern tip. V1 was occupied by OPERATOR and two occupants. OCCUPANT left the vessel, from the stern, and entered the water. This was in an attempt to walk an anchor (which was secured to the stern) towards the shoreline. The engine from V1 was on and in reverse. Tidal current and wind assisted the stern of the vessel towards victim. The propeller from V1 struck OCCUPANT, causing injury. 
  
  OCCUPANT was transported from Anclote Key Preserve State Park to Anclote River Park Boat Ramp by V1. He was met by emergency medical staff at the boat ramp and was subsequently transported to Bayonet Point Hospital by emergency medical staff. Subject had four large lacerations/contusions on his right forearm ; 
  
  The lacerations ranged from approximately three inches in length to approximately six inches in length. There was muscle tissue and fat visible. Based on method of injury assessment, it did appear indicative of a propeller strike.  I spoke with Doctor, ER Physician (Bayonet Point Hospital), in regards to the planned treatment of injuries. Doctor advised stitches and antibiotics will be administered.
