RedactedNarrative: V1 operator launched from the ramp. He attempted to start the motor but it wouldn't start. Operator then threw an anchor out of the stern of v1 and he instructed the passenger to throw another anchor out at the bow. Almost immediately v1's stern dipped down and water began to enter v1. The passenger was able to pull the bow anchor back up but the stern anchor was stuck and the operator couldn't pull it up. V1 then sank beneath them. The passenger grabbed onto a container that held pfd's and was able to swim to the bank. Once on the bank she yelled and looked for the operator but could not see or hear him. She ran for help and called 911. A search for the operator/victim was conducted and he was located approximately 27 hours later about 200 yards downstream from where the passenger swam out.
