Crews found the body of 41-year old Ginger Robbins of Caryville shortly after two o'clock Sunday afternoon.

The accident happened around seven o'clock Saturday night. Officials say a boat, possibly traveling at a high rate of speed, flipped several times and landed upside down in the water.

Robbins and her father, 65-year old Robert Foshee, were thrown from the boat. Shortly after the crash, rescuers found Foshee and took him to UT Medical Center.

"Excessive speed is a factor in a lot of accidents similar to this, I'm not sure if that's the case here," said TWRA Officer Jason Lankford.

Robert Foshee is in stable condition at UT Medical Center.
