RedactedNarrative: Operator #1 stated to the effect of:  I was heading south in the ICW.  I approached the west side of temporary ICW marker #80. After passing the marker I lost power to my starboard engine.  I then opened the engine compartment and noticed water coming in from the port side.  I then beached the boat to prevent it from sinking and notified the UCSG over channel 16.
  
  Investigation at the scene revealed Vessel #1 was heading south within the ICW.  As Operator #1 approached temporary ICW marker #80, he was on the western side of the mark.  Vessel #1 starboard side rutter struck the remaining portion of ICW marker #80, which had been broken below the water line.  The starboard side rutter pulled out from its seal causing water to fill the engine compartment.
  No injuries were reported at the scene.
  
  Cause of the accident was determined to be Operator #1 failed to following the general rule "red right south while within the ICW." 
  
  It should be noted the marker has been cut below the waterline and is not clearly marker.
