Four occupants were fishing near Yakobi Rock for about 45 minutes in moderately rough waters. The vessel was mostly stationary with motor in idle, near a 60ft shelf in open water. One of the occupants noticed a surging wave coming at the vessel "out of nowhere". The wave was estimated to be approximately 15ft+ when it crested and crashed down onto the vessel, causing the bow to be tossed to the starboard side before the vessel capsized. 

Two occupants were ejected from the vessel. One occupant was trapped briefly, before exiting the vessel. The last occupant was trapped for longer, having to find trapped air underneath for one breath, before being able to exit the vessel. All four occupants were then able to climb onto the overturned vessel. After about 20 minutes, a troller spotted the overturned vessel and was able to contact a nearby fishing charter vessel that responded to assist the occupants. From a safe distance, the charter vessel retrieved the four occupants using a throwable device. The occupants were then taken to Waters Edge Lodge.
