As far as I heard yesterday, the driver of the boat ran aground either before or after having a heart attack and had to be taken to the hospital. First they were going to airlift the patient but because CPR may have been needed (they don't do CPR in the helicopter) they went via boat.
I did here of another accident involving a Cigarette cutting between a tow boat and grounded sport-fisher and getting caught up in the rope. No one was hurt, apparently the Cigarette ran OVER the rope creating a big mess and almost sunk the tow boat. That could have been a real disaster had they gone under the rope.

Sounds like he was running a bit close to other boats! That tow rope couldn't have been that long separating the two boats!
