RedactedNarrative: On 9/6/2015 I OFC, responded to a reported boat accident that had occurred in Rock Hall. Both occupants of the vessel, the victim and her husband, were located at University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown which is where I responded to. Victim had suffered a hand injury while on their sailboat at Haven Harbor Marina in Rock Hall, MD. She stated she was operating their 2011 sailing vessel and leaving a slip at the marina when she attempted to fend the vessel away from another vessels bow by hand. She advised she had swung too wide or waited too long to make the turn as they came out of the slip. Her hand was smashed by her own vessel. They then docked the vessel and Husband transported her to the hospital via their vehicle. The extent of her injuries were a large laceration to the tip of her thumb around the nail and broke the thumb itself. She remained in the hospital for administration of pain management and wound cleaning and setting. Husband corroborated the same series of events. Both stated the conditions were not a factor in the accident and it was a mishap due to operator error. All events occurred in Kent County, MD...
