RedactedNarrative: On 4/30/23, i officer with ncwrc received a call in reference to a vessel incident that had occurred previously on 4/24/23 at the holden beach public dock on the icw.  I received a statement from owner and operator of vessel 1 "wanderer", that vessel 1 had docked on the public dock for the evening during a transit journey.  
  
  Vessel 1 docked on its port side into the current on the east end of the dock.  Vessel 1 noted that vessel 2 "black pearl" an approximate 46' sailing vessel was travelling east on the north side of the icw.  At this time, vessel 2 attempted a 180 degree turn in order to dock on its port side of the same dock vessel 1 was docked to.  
  
  Vessel 1 stated that vessel 2 failed to make the 180 degree turn and was too close to vessel one.  Vessel two made contact with vessel 1 on vessel 1's starboard bow with vessel 2's port bow.  The initial contact caused vessel 2 to bounce and make contact again with vessel one.  At this time, vessel 2 cleared vessel 1 and was able to dock without further incident.  
  
  Vessel 1 stated that it sustained no injuries, but that it sustained paint scrapping and a small gouge out of the varnished rail.  Vessel 1 stated that with boatyard costs and the need to haul out to do the hull painting, the estimated cost is $6000.00.
