RedactedNarrative: On 09/19/2016, I, OFC received a complaint of a sunken vessel on Deep Creek Lake. The vessel owner advised that the accident must have occurred sometime between Friday night and Sunday afternoon. There were no known electric issues related to the vessel nor any heavy rains/natural events that would have contributed to sinking the vessel during that timeframe.
  
  The vessel is moored on Deep Creek Lake at a private dock along Rt. 219 highway. The vessel is identified as a 1994 22' Colbalt, bearing the registration MD 2877 BC, HIN: FGEB2208B494. The vessel is identified as a ski boat, with a white and red detailed hull and a red canvas cover. The vessel will be floated by Bill's Marine Staff and transported to Bills Marine Service Center for evaluation/repair. The damage was estimated at $18,000 by Bill's Marine staff, and the vessel is worth approximately $12,000. The insurance company, All State will be deeming the vessel totaled.  
  
  The cause of the vessel sinking is unknown at this time and may be determined by Bill's Marine staff in the event of repair. Upon inspection of the vehicle I could see no damage or obvious signs of injury from another vessel strike or vandalism, all four dock lines were still secured around the cleats with the stern of the vessel completely submerged.
  
  All events occurred in Garrett County, Maryland.
