RedactedNarrative: V1 and V2 were headed out the Lake Worth Inlet. V2 was following V1 at approximately 100 yards at the mouth of the inlet. V1's turned starboard and the steering malfunctioned continued turning starboard. V1 turned three quarters of a circle and struck V2's starboard side bow. When V1 turned back toward V2, V2 put his vessel in reverse. After V1 struck V2 it continued towards it's starboard side, came off throttle and threw its anchor. V2 did not believe the vessels had made contact due to a large flare and weight of his vessel. V2 saw that V1 was anchored and then continued out the inlet.   
  
  V2 did not realize there was damage to his boat until later on that day when he returned to the docks.
  
  While taking pictures of V1, I turned the steering wheel. The wheel turned with no tension and it did not rotate the engine.
