RedactedNarrative: While attempting to tie up at Annapolis Dock, to check for a vibration, the operator jumped off the boat to tie up. As he got onto the dock the boat shifting linkage somehow moved back into forward gear.  
  
  The boat began traveling in a circle and hit the pier connected to the dock each time as it came around.  The operator climbed over the railing on the pier and when the boat came around he jumped down into the boat (about 15 ft) and was able to take control of the vessel and navigate it back to dock.
  
  The owner/operator indicated on the report that he thought the vessel was likely a total loss but no dollar value was given.  The estimate is conservative at about $2,000.
