RedactedNarrative: Notification and Response-! was notified by CCSO Communications to respond to the Shands Pier in reference to an injury that occurred in a boat. Upon my arrival I met with Subject, his adult daughter and her son. The vessel was attached to the public dock at Shands Pier Boat Ramp. Subject described his injury and told me that he was unable to move his right leg without severe pain. Shortly thereafter Clay County Fire Rescue Unit 1 arrived and began to treat Subject. Investigation-I interviewed Subject prior to his getting transported to Orange Park Medical Center. He described having slipped on a shrimp net that was lying on the deck. I also interviewed Subject1 who is Subject's daughter and a passenger on the vessel. Based on the interviews I determined the following sequence of events: 
  
  Prior to Accident-
  The Subject was on the St. Johns River with his daughter and grandson shrimping. The vessel was anchored in the St. Johns River just south of the Shands Bridge. At some point Subject's grandson tasted his net and the arm strap broke and the net began to sink. 
  
  At Accident-Subject attempted to grab a boathook to retrieve the net but stepped on the weights from a shrimp net that was lying on the deck, When Subject stepped onto the weights they rolled out from under his foot causing Subject to fall to the deck. Subject sustained an injury to his right hip. 
  
  Post Accident-Subject was able to navigate the vessel back to the Shands Pier where he was treated by Clay County Rescue 1. Subject was transported to the Orange Park Medical Center by CCFR 1. Post Accident Investigation-I performed a boating safety inspection on V-1 and there were no violations noted. I was later contacted by Subject1 that Subject did sustain a broken right hip and was being scheduled for surgery on 9-19-16. Conclusion-Based on this investigation, I determined that there were no navigational errors or other violations that contributed to this accident.
