RedactedNarrative: V-1 flooded and sank due to taking a wave over the bow.
  
  The operator stated he borrowed a boat, later identified as FL7863PN a 12 Ft Aluminum hull with a black 50hp motor, they left from the boat ramp bay side of Conch Key, went under the Long Key Bridge and were heading out onto the ocean to fish when a wave came over the side of the boat causing it to flood and completely sink. They then called 911 while in the water holding onto a cooler. Two of the occupants were able to don life jackets.
  
  	The statement of the operator was consistent with the situation. When i arrived on scene i was unable to locate a vessel. The wind was approximately 15kts and gusty from the North and the area they sank South of the Long Key Bridge has a strong current. These two elements combine cause steep waves with a short period between crests that would create a hazardous condition for a 12 Ft aluminum boat.
  The vessel is still missing as of 3/2/20.
