RedactedNarrative: The Operator of Vessel 2 was operating on plane, crossing the lake on a southwest course; Vessel 1 was being operated with the use of a trolling motor in the open zone of the lake while the 2 Occupants on board were fishing, and was operating in an area in the line of intended travel for Vessel 2.  The Operator of Vessel 2 was not maintaining a proper lookout and did not see Vessel 1 resulting in a collision between the two vessels.  Based on the collision point (the two vessels collided port side to port side) it appears that the Operator of Vessel 2 tried to make an unsuccessful last-minute navigation change to starboard to try to avoid the collision.  As the two vessels collided port side to port side, Vessel 2 ran across the port stern corner of Vessel 1 and made contact with the outboard motor of Vessel 1; the Operator aboard Vessel 1 (who was on the bow of Vessel 1 where the trolling motor was located) was ejected as a result of the incident but was able to swim safely back to Vessel 1 with no injuries.
