RedactedNarrative: While anchored and fishing approximately 8 miles offshore, owner/operator’s fishing gear became entangled in the lower unit of his outboard motor. He trimmed the motor up out of the water to untangle his line. He then got into the water and was under the skeg at the moment his vessel went over a swell, causing the skeg of the vessel to come down and cut into his head. He also received right shoulder abrasions that he's unsure how he got them and contusions near the site of the laceration.
