Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was working at a shipyard when a 64 ft long linenglass pleasure boat came in for bottom repairs. The boat was backed up to a bulkhead and a 3 in. wide by 32 ft long web sling attached to a 165 ton crawler crane was placed under the stern to lift the boat approximately 3 ft above the water. Employee #1 and a coworker were on a small-float pontoon barge working on the propeller when one end of the web sling broke loose from the metal eye end attachment. The 62,500 lb boat fell and struck Employee #1 on the forehead, knocking him into the water. He was killed.
