On Sunday April 23 at 1527   I received a call by phone from samburg tn rescue squad indicating ther had been a single boat accident on reelfoot lake. I arrived at pocket boat ramp at 1630. The vessel was driven under its own power to this location by the owner. He stated that he was traveling SW into Horse Island ditch when a mechanical failure occured with his hydrolic steering causing him to lose control of the vessel. The vessel turned drastically left running ashore striking several trees and running aground coming to rest on the bank wedged in trees  *** Boating
