RedactedNarrative: Subject (Vessel 1), was at anchor and having engine trouble.  Subject went to the back of the vessel trying to pull start the engine while one passenger was at the console turning the key.  The engine tried to crank over.  The third passenger came to the stern of the vessel to lift the gas tank up onto a platform above the engine to see if that would help. That is when Subject noticed with the two of them at the stern of the vessel, water coming over the stern and into the boat.  He then had the passenger that was at the console come to the back of the vessel with a bucket to bail out the water.  When the passenger with the bucket was coming to the stern of the vessel, Subject and the other passenger started to proceed up the port side.  Subject stated as they were going up the port side of the vessel, that the water in the stern rushed forward towards the bow and then went to the port side of the vessel that they were on.  This caused the vessel to lean to the port side and capsize.  Subject and his passengers got on top of the vessel and called for help.  A Marine Fisheries Officer went to the location and put everybody on his vessel and took them to the Coast Guard Station at Oregon Inlet.  Subject went back out the next day and retrieved the vessel.   Neither alcohol nor drugs contributed to the incident and no violation was issued.
