RedactedNarrative: On Monday May 25, 2020 at approximately 5:40pm I responded for an overturned Personal Water Craft (PWC) with 4 subjects in the water in the Chesapeake Bay off Point Lookout State Park.
  I arrived on scene at the Point Lookout State Park Fishing Pier parking lot at approximately 6:10pm and met the Sergeant already on location. Sergeant advised all 4 subjects had been retrieved from the water by the Ridge Fire Department and examined by Emergency Medical Personnel, all refusing treatment with no injuries.  The nose of the PWC, a Kawasaki with Maryland registration MD 8147 DB, could be seen sticking above the water line about half way out the fishing pier to the north side.
  I interviewed the owner and operator of the PWC, Operator 1 who stated that while towing passengers on a tube, the tow line became tangled on the propulsion nozzle of the vessel. In efforts to remove the line from the nozzle, the passengers and operator rolled the PWC over to work on it.  When the PWC was rolled back over, they noticed it had taken on too much water and was sinking. All subjects were wearing life jackets and held on the tube and PWC until brought aboard the fire boat.
  Statements from the three passengers on the inner tube all corroborated the same events. Operator 1 was given one warning for exceeding the capacity of his PWC and one warning for failing to have a rear facing observer while towing on a PWC. Operator 1 did possess a recent boaters safety education card and the PWC was under current registration. The PWC was not insured.
  SeaTow removed the vessel from the water and returned it to Operator 1 at 9:00 pm at the Point Lookout boat ramp and was taken home.
  Nothing further to report. All events occurred in Saint Mary's County, Maryland.
