RedactedNarrative: On September 6, 2015, Operator1 and family had been visiting friends at Star Dust Marina.  Operator1 stated he left Star Dust Marina around 8:30/8:45 p.m. traveling upstream back to Beach Island Marina.  Operator1 stated he was navigating on the left side of the channel to avoid two islands as he entered Loyston Sea from Point 19.  Operator1 ran aground on a shallow point coming of the southwest end of Wood Duck Island.  The incident occurred with no personal injuries to Operator1 or passengers.  Operator1 called a friend at Star Dust Marina who came and gave them a ride back to Star Dust Marina.  Lake levels on Norris Reservoir had been dropping dramatically for the past two weeks exposing many shallow areas in the lake.  Low lake levels and a cloudy night with poor visibility attributed to the incident.
