RedactedNarrative: Operator of Vessel #1 was traveling south on lake and had his 5-year old daughter between himself and the steering controls.  Nine-year old Operator of Vessel #2 had another child as passenger and was behind Vessel #1.  Vessel #2 made a sharp turn to the east which ended up as a U-turn (circling) in front of his father's Vessel #1.  Vessel #2 hit starboard side of Vessel #1 causing damage to starboard side mirror and starboard side of Vessel #2.  Vessel #1 had damage to bow like scratches to the underside.  The force of the collision caused 5-yr/old passenger of Vessel #1 to smash her head into the steering controls causing a laceration on her forehead.  She was transported to the hospital and received 7 stitches in her forehead.
  The owner of both PWCs was cited (citation #5217) for allowing an underage person to operate his PWC, and was provided educational material to all involved and all were advised that children were not allowed to operate the PWCs until they were older and received training.
