RedactedNarrative: During the morning hours of July 12, 2018, I, Cpl., of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, received a call from DNR Communications in reference to a possible personal injury boating accident that just occurred in Swan Creek. DNR Communications advised that a man injured himself when he fell inside of a boat. It was unclear if the vessel was anchored at the time of the fall. DNR Communications advised that the victim was brought to shore at 20816 Humphreys Point Road, Rock Hall, Kent County, MD, 21661, for EMS treatment. At about 0650 hours, I arrived at 20816 Humphreys Point Road and met with EMS staff. 
  
  Victim was laying on a gurney in the back of an ambulance. I asked Victim what happened. He advised that he was standing on the bow of his sailboat, pulling the anchor up. The vessel would later be identified as a 1996 34'6" white colored Performance Cruising Gemini 105M catamaran sailboat, bearing Maryland registration "6217BC." Victim advised that while the anchor was about 2 feet above the water, he slipped and fell inside of his boat. Victim's right ankle was injured in the fall. It was clear that this incident was a reportable personal injury boating accident. 
  EMS advised that he was going to be transported to the University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown. I told Victim that he would meet with him at the hospital. As the ambulance drove away, at about 0652 hours, Rock Hall volunteer firefighter towed the Gemini over to Gratitude Marina, located in Rock Hall, MD, for storage while he was being treated. 
  At about 0714 hours, I arrived at the University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown, located in Chestertown, Kent County, MD, 21620. I again met with Victim and he explained what happened. At about 0600 hours, Victim was standing on the bow of his Gemini as he pulled up the vessel's anchor. As he pulled the anchor up and put the anchor line into the opened anchor storage box, he stepped off of a textured non-skid surface and onto a smooth fiberglass surface on the vessels deck. Victim slipped and fell in the left side of his boat. As he fell, his right ankle twisted and dislocated to the right, causing pain. Victim advised that there was no other anchor in the water when he fell. Victim's wife immediately iced Victim's foot. Wife called 911 several minutes later and requested EMS assistance.
  Hospital staff found that Victim dislocated his right foot, broke three bones in the foot, and tore several ligaments. Victim was subsequently discharged from the hospital and would need foot surgery to repair the damage to his right foot.
