RedactedNarrative: According to the passenger, V1 along with another boat had been running yo-yo's all night while also drinking and "racing" up and down the boat lane. He further stated he didn't know how the accident happened.  
  
  They (V1) were traveling north when V1 made a sharp right turn hitting a wave and ejecting them both out. The passenger did not believe they hit a stump or anything. He said V1 circled them once, straightened out and hit the bank on the west side of the lake.  
  
  He further stated the operator/victim was "freaking out" and gasping for air; he tried to calm him down but the victim ended up going under.  The victim was recovered the next morning in approx. 20ft of water.  Inspection of V1 revealed no damage to indicate it has struck any object in the water. The victim was requested to be sent to the State Crime Lab for an autopsy and toxicology testing.
  
  UPDATE: 8/18/19 - Investigating Officer advised upon transport to the Crime Lab, the coroner was informed that due to Covid-19 they couldn't accept the body since it wasn't a murder investigation so the coroner just took the body to the funeral home and failed to draw blood or do an autopsy - violating state law.  Therefore, no toxicology results are available but alcohol is still suspected as the cause of this accident.
