RedactedNarrative: From my experience and the physical evidence I deduce the following: 
  It is likely that on Thursday morning, 02/20/2014, three men were operating vessel#1 from the Stewarts Point area (where they last checked-in with family) heading south, in attempt to find safe harbor from rough waters, or possible fishing areas near Echo Bay Marina, where their vehicle and trailer were located. It is likely the fishermen were approximately 2-3 miles north of Echo Bay Marina (GPS coordinates 36 degrees 19.776 minutes N, 114 degrees 23.708 minutes W) the night of 02/19/2014 or early morning of 02/20/2014 when they experienced high wind gusts which could have created 4-5 ft. waves sufficient enough to break over the freeboard of the vessel. Vessel#1 likely took on water as it plowed into waves and capsized. The projected area of the accident had an average water depth of 165 ft. with water temperature of approximately 57.8 degrees F and is a known portion of the lake that experiences high winds and rough waters. 
  
  Due to the circumstances of the boat ignition being found in what is likely the “on” position, boat''s throttle in the “forward” position, boat''s drain plug being properly inserted into the hull drain, no apparent significant damage to the hull, and the vessel possibly being overloaded by weight; it is likely the boat was being operated and in motion when it overturned due to waves (in open water north of Echo Bay Marina) causing the three men to go into the water. Due to the physical evidence, it is presumed the three men were not wearing life jackets when they went into the water. The water temperature at the proposed time of the accident was approximately 57 degrees F with wind gusts up to 27 mph and air temperature of approximately 52 degrees.  (owner of vessel#1) is listed as the proposed operator for this boat accident report, although there is no way of conclusively determining which individual was operating vessel#1 at the time of the accident. 
  
  At the time of this report, one body has been recovered and two are still missing. An addendum to this report will be added when/if other bodies are recovered.
