On June 1, at about 11:45 p.m. the Lundar RCMP received a call of four missing boaters on Lake Manitoba. Information was received that they launched earlier the same day near Oak Point, off Highway 6, and were overdue to return.  

RCMP along with local emergency services conducted multiple shore searches overnight without success.

The following morning, the RCMP, along with assistance from community boaters, began lake patrols. Three survivors, all residents of Lundar - two males, ages 36 and 53, and a 37-year-old female, were eventually located on the eastside lake shore, north of their launching point. A 54-year-old female from Oak Point was found deceased nearby. The boat was later found submerged near the shoreline.

It is unknown at this time if any of boaters were using life jackets.
