RedactedNarrative: On 07/23/2023 at approximately 1705 hours, I responded to Sandbar in reference to a non injury boating collision between Vessel 1 was a 2020 SeaDoo PWC and Vessel 2 was a 2013 Sea Ray open bow vessel. 
  
  The operator of vessel 1 advised he had left the sandbar and began heading South when he lost his hat. He began searching for his hat by going up and downriver searching for it. While he was travelling upriver, Vessel 2 was headed Northeast and upriver. 
  
  Vessel 2 moved over to pass Vessel 1 when Vessel 1 made an abrupt right turn and accelerated, crossing in front of Vessel 2 and striking the bow, ejecting operator1. Upon arrival, both parties advised there were no injuries, just vessel damage to both vessels. Vessel 1 then left the scene while Vessel 2 was towed by TowBoat U.S.
