RedactedNarrative: On Sunday, June 21, 2020 on Center Hill Lake in Dekalb County, Tennessee at approx. 0945 hrs, Subject’s wakeboard boat (V1), was being towed upstream by Operator2''s houseboat (V2). Additionally, there were two other houseboats ( one on either side ) tied to Operator2''s houseboat. One of the other houseboats also was towing a pontoon boat behind it. This group of vessels had travelled under Hurricane Bridge and was approx. ½ mile upstream of the bridge.
  
   Statements given by Operator2 and Operator2''s son stated that everyone onboard their houseboat (V2) was inside the houseboat, with the exception of Operator2, who was operating V2 from the upper-deck helm. The statement from Operator2''s perspective was that a large cabin cruiser (V3) passed from their stern and along their port side, at a relatively slow speed.  He stated that he looked back and saw the swim platform of V1 up in the air as the wake from V3 was passing underneath the houseboat.  He stated that he immediately brought V2 to a stop and ran to the back of his houseboat to find the wake board boat V1 and flipped upside down and capsized.
  
  Officer located (owner/operator of V3) and set up a meeting to obtain a statement from him on 06/24/2020.
  
  Operator3 stated from his perspective that on 06/21/2020 at approximately 1000 hrs, he was operating his cruiser (V3) and was approached from the stern by a black/white PWC with “a very irate young man yelling and screaming obscenities, and passing the cruiser at high speed.”  Operator3 stated that “after passing several times, we finally understood what he was screaming.  He accused us of sinking his ski boat”
  
  Operator3 stated that prior to this, they had passed three houseboats tied together and towing three or four boats.  Operator3 stated that because a pontoon boat was passing on the starboard side of houseboats, he slowed to a slow speed and passed on the port side.  He also stated that, as they passed, they waved to three individuals on the bridge of the houseboat tied on the left, and they waved backed.  Operator3 stated that, after passing beyond the houseboats he sped back up.
