Vessel 1 was traveling west past the swim beach while pulling a tube approximately 600 yards from shore when it struck a submerged object causing damage to the outdrive, prop and hull.  the impact caused the vessel to become disabled and needed to be towed to shore.
The water level in the reservoir at this time was several feet lower than usual which resulted in a hazardous condition because the vessel would have easily cleared the submerged object if the waters had been at a more typical depth.
