RedactedNarrative: V1 was traveling West by Southwest on the Gulf of Mexico.  V2 was traveling South on the Gulf of Mexico.  V2 turned around to retrieve items that had blown out of the boat.  V2 was now traveling North.  V1 continued to travel West and hit V2 on the starboard side with its bow when V2 crossed its path.
  
  There was no damage to V1, FL 8293 FW.  V2, FL 2055 EJ sustained fiberglass damage to the front starboard side of the vessel.  Based on my interviews and statements given I believe V1 was traveling west from Bean Point in the Gulf of Mexico to a spear fishing location.  At the time subject gave control of V1 to operator1, V2 was traveling south away from V1.  When the objects blew out of V2, the operator turned the vessel around.  V2 was now headed north on a path to cross in front of V1.  At this point V2 was approaching V1 on V1's port side.  V2 then slowed down and stopped in front of V1's path to retrieve an item from the water.  The operator of V1 was unable to see V2 in front of his vessel because of an obstructed view and failure to maintain a proper lookout.  V2 stopped in front of V1 because the operator did not see the path V1 was traveling towards them.  At the time of the crash the operator of V1 did not make a maneuver to avoid the crash.  According to the operator of V2 he was unable to make a maneuver to get out of the way of V1 because he was away from the console of his boat retrieving an item from the water.  The lack of damage to V1 is consistent with an impact
