RedactedNarrative: Vessel 2 was attached to it's mooring in the mooring field off of the Town of Falmouth, in Casco Bay, Maine.
  
  Vessel 2 was unoccuppied at the time of the incident.
  
  Vessel 1 was occupied by 3 persons and was leaving it's mooring heading out of the mooring field into Casco Bay.  According to the owner/operator of Vessel 1, he heard a sound come from below deck and briefly took his eyes off of the course he was sailing.  He looked in the vicinity of the source of the sound and found all to be well.  When he brought his eyes back to the water, he noticed a large dark blue boat directly in front of him.  Vessel 1 was unable to avoid the collision and struck the stern of vessel 2 directly with his bow.  
  
  Vessel 1 did a brief survey of the impact on Vessel 2 and did not notice any damage.
  
  
  The owner of vessel 2 boards his boat over the port gunwale and not up the stern.  It was not until July 6,2010 that the owner of vessel 2 had cause to use his stern ladder.  He noticed the damage and reported the damage to the Town of Falmouth and also to the Maine Marine Patrol.  After a brief search of the mooring field, a suspect vessel matching the description of a boat capable of making the "clean" impact was located with blue paint transfer on the bow, Vessel 1.   I spoke with the owner of vessel 1 and was told of the contact of the two vessels but he was not aware of the damage.  
  
  Vessel 1 is approximately 75 yards away from vessel 2 when on their moorings in the same mooring field.  Vessel 1 must pass vessel 2 to exit the field.  This is how the accident occurred.
