RedactedNarrative: Owner of both vessels involved stated that he was operating vessel #1 (open boat) at the time of the collision.  2 of his friends were taking turns operating the PWC.  All three operators comsumed alcoholic beverages and several containers both open and unopened were in the open boat.  Victim was operating the PWC at the time of the collision.  According to operator and the other friend they saw victim suddenly traveling straight at the bow of the boat with the PWC, strke the boat and knocked both operator and friend on the open boat off into the water.  The PWC shut down while the boat continued to travel around them while they were afloat in the water awaiting assistance.  An off duty firefighter brought victim and friend in and called 911.  A subsequent search of the vessel revealed more alcoholic beverages and what appeared to be 3 small burnt marijuana cigaretts in a small compartment in the dash area.  As of 11/3/09 I have not received the completed report for cause of accident.
