RedactedNarrative: At approximately 4:30pm i was notified by dnr dispatch of a boat crash in neenah. The boat hit rocks and was taking on water but was tied to one of the barges at the racine street bridge construction. I called winnebago dispatch and asked for one of the responding law enforcement units call me when they arrive. I was called by deputy (winnebago so) and i asked he collect contact information for the operator and the registration numbers of the boat. There were no injuries for the crash event. 
  
  Deputy passed along the information for operator and boat. I ran the boat registration in gowild and found the boat had been registered to someone else and expired 3/31/2022. Operator was informed i would be in contact with him. I later called operator and asked to meet with him as he was still at the boat. I met with operator and identified him through driver's license. I confirmed the registration numbers for the boat and it displayed expired registration decals. 
  
  Operator stated he purchased the boat about a year ago and it was federally registered under the name "portland". Operator did not have any of the paperwork for the boat and was asked to provide that to me later. I began the dnr boat crash report for this incident (d6l0g0zlvp). 
  
  I learned operator was operating the boat westbound from lake winnebago into the menasha channel. At approximately the second red channel marker before the racine street bridge operator stated he struck a submerged object and near the rear port side. 
  
  Operator stated the stern raised and the motors revved up. Operator reversed one engine and backed the boat off of the object. Operator then maneuvered the boat along the barge on the north side of the channel and secured the boat to the barge. Operator used a water pump to remove water as it was coming in and flooding the boat. Operator stated there was likely damage to the hull, propeller, shaft, and rudder operator admitted to consuming three beers earlier in the day before the event.
