Drunken Boater Crashes Vessel Into Jetty

The operator of a sportsfishing boat was charged with drunken boating after he crashed his 36-foot vessel into the rock jetty at the Ocean City inlet last Thursday.

According to Maryland Natural Resources Police Sgt. Art Windemuth, the custom boat, Anger Management, struck the south jetty off the northern tip of Assateague Island around 10 p.m. Aboard the vessel were the owner and operator, Earnest J. Kasner of Belle Harbor, N.Y., and a mate.

The Coast Guard sent boats to the scene from its Ocean City station as did the NRP. Kasner and the mate were picked up by the Coast Guard and Kasner was taken by ambulance to Atlantic General Hospital in Berlin with non-life threatening injuries, Windemuth said. The mate was not injured.
