RedactedNarrative: Subject called Elbert County 911 after blacking out and running his vessel aground just out from Coldwater Creek while boating on Lake Russell. 
  
  Elbert County Sheriffs Office, Elbert County EMS, and DNR responded to the scene. Elbert County deputies located operator just north of Paradise Point laying on the back of his vessel very disoriented. They transported him back to Coldwater Creek boat ramp where Elbert County EMS and I made contact with him. 
  
  Operator was vomiting and appeared to be in distress. He was transported to Elbert County Hospital for further medical evaluation. The vessel had damage to the hull from impact with shoreline. His vessel was loaded back on his trailer and stored at the Elbert County EMS building in Elberton. I made contact with Operators son and made arrangements with him to retrieve his fathers vessel. I followed up with Operator's son the following Monday and after Doctors run several tests it was found that Operator had an apparent heart attack while operating his boat. The medical issue caused him to run his vessel ashore at no fault of his own making.
