RedactedNarrative: On March 28th, 2019, at approximately 1630 hours, a vessel bearing a Florida Registration of  FL 4859 MA was traveling ocean side of Snake Creek. The vessel struck a wave and the transom of the vessel broke free, causing the vessel to sink. 
  
  Subject explained that he was traveling West to return the vessel back to A1A water sports. The winds were very rough, as were the seas. He explained his vessel struck a wave head on and the engine fell off the transom of the vessel. Once he assessed the damage, he noticed that the whole transom had been removed.
  
  He immediately placed a Personal flotation device around his neck and called his supervisor. His supervisor called the USCG and reported the vessel sinking. I was able to get close to the vessel due to shallow waters. Sea Tow was able to float the vessel and bring it back to shore. He was not injured.
