The operator of Vessel 1, a rented pontoon boat, was traveling south on the east side of Black Cat Island. As she turned to round the south side of the island in order to travel west, she cut across two clearly marked navigational buoys and struck rocks in the area. The vessel became stuck on a rock. Occupants of the vessel left the boat to stand on the rocks they were stuck on and were able to push the boat off of the rocks. They then reboarded the boat and were towed back to the marina the boat was rented from. No injuries were sustained but the entire lower unit of the boat was damaged.
