On the afternoon of 6-9-23 at approximately 1400 hrs. I received a call in reference to a boating accident on the Apalachicola River. I arrived at the scene at approximately 1500 hrs.  The subjects on board the vessel were OP1 and PAX 1. I met the subjects at Ocheesee Boat ramp where a good Samaritan  had towed them to. They explained to me that they had struck a submerged object and it had caused their engine to stop running  like it should. The engine was a Yamaha 50 and the damage was not visible.  OP1 and I spoke and we both agreed that the damage to the vessel was all in the lower unit of the engine.
