The boat was running offshore towards scallop grounds near the Chicken Canyon, the deepest part of the Mud Hole, when the prop shaft broke. This caused the boat to flood, and about three hours later it capsized and sank. The crew abandoned ship and was picked up by another fishing vessel. As of fall 2017, the wreck was completely over on its port side, with the deck almost vertical.
