RedactedNarrative: On Wednesday November 22, 2017, I was dispatched to a single vessel accident in the Jacobs Creek area of South Holston Lake in Sullivan county Tennessee. I arrived on scene at approximately 1030 hrs. Upon arrival, I observed a 24'' Harris pontoon bearing TN 7394 EG that was run aground with two male occupants. 
  The owner/operator was traveling approximately 10-20 mph when he struck the point outside of Jacobs Creek running aground approximately 30 feet before coming to rest. He stated he had only made the same trip once before and he thought he was out far enough to miss the point. The other male occupant stated that he had his head down to stay out of the wind and when he looked up the pontoon had come to a rest on shore. Operator has minimal experience on the water and has not taken a boating safety course. The incident resulted in property damage to the pontoons, however, no injuries were sustained by the occupants.
