RedactedNarrative: On 06232012 at approx. 1300hrs Operator1 was slowing down his vessel before he entered the no wake zone, located at the cut in the old dam, when another vessel struck his vessel and landed on the back engine compartment of his vessel.  The second vessel was being operated by Operator2 (brother to operator of vessel #1).  Operator1 stated that he had been slowed down for 10 to 15 secs before his brother ran into him.  Operator1 advised that his brother’s vessel struck into the back of this vessel causing damage to his vessel and the bow of the boat struck him in the head and neck.  Operator1 had his wife drive him to the emergency room located at Susan B. Allen Hospital.  At the ER Operator1 was treated and released, after x-rays were taken, with no major injuries.
  Operator2stated that he did not know his brother was slowing and by the time he did notice he did not have enough time to react.  His vessel landed on the back engine cover of his brothers vessel.  The vessel did not have any damage. Both vessels were travel west when the accident occurred.  Vessel2 was displaying expired Oklahoma boat registration number.  NRO spoke to Operator2about this and he thought that it had been taken care of.
  
  Both parties had their vessels insured.
