RedactedNarrative: On Friday June 6, 2018 at approximately 2:30 PM, Operator and his wife left their boat dock in Hertford, NC.  The couple took their 17-foot Glasstream bass boat out heading southeast into the Albemarle Sound.  After realizing it was too rough and windy, Operator decided to turn around and head back to land.  When he turned the vessel northwest to head back to the dock, a wave came over the stern and swamped the vessel making it capsize.  They decided to exit the vessel grabbing a PFD and Cooler to aid them in swimming back to shore.  The USCG Helicopter retrieved the couple from the water safely.
  
  There were no injuries as a result of this incident.
