RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 (V1), a 74-foot sportfish, was headed northbound in the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) in the area of Riviera Beach, Palm Beach County. V1 made a westbound turn into the Riviera Beach Marina. V1 continued westbound into the marina for approximately 50 yards then made a turn to the north to back into his slip at the marina. V1 attempted to dock serval times without success. The deckhand for V1 was able to get a bow line tied to a cleat at V1s slip. This caused V1 to rotate back towards the east causing the bow of V1 to strike the bow of Vessel 2 (V2), a 55-foot sailing vessel which was docked in its slip facing north. This caused the captain of V1 to panic and put the engines hard into reverse. V1 is now travelling west bound in reverse causing V1 to back into Vessel 3 (V3), a 68-foot cabin yacht docked facing south. The collision between V1 and V3 put a 1-foot hole in V3s portside stern and multiple gouges and cracks in the fiberglass in the area. V1 sustained damage to its entire swim platform off of its transom. The captain of V1 put the engines back in forward but was unable to maintain steerage with a strong south wind. The wind pushed V1 into Vessel 4 (V4) and Vessel 5 (V5). V4 is a 52-foot sailing vessel which was docked facing south. V4 sustained damage to its bow pulpit, it was bent to the vessels port side, caused by contact with V1s port side bow. V5 is a 44-foot sailing vessel which was docked facing north.
