RedactedNarrative: V2, was coming into a small cut through Faka Union Bay when V1 was entering the same cut in opposite directions. Both vessel's collided with each other. 
  Passenger on V2 suffered a laceration on his forehead. 
  I sat down with both (V1) and (V2) on separate occasions to discuss the boating accident after it had happened to get an understanding of what happened on the day of the boating accident. 
  While interviewing the captain of V1, he stated to me that he was out fishing with some friends when he was headed in the same cut as V2 was traveling through as well. He stated that he seen V2 through the mangroves and slowed his vessel to avoid a collision. His efforts were unsuccessful. The captain of V1 maneuvered his vessel to the left to avoid collision, but V2 maneuvered his vessel to the right hitting V1 at the starboard stern portion of the vessel. The vessel sustained damage.
  When I met with the captain of V2 he stated that he was operating his vessel southbound coming into the small cut of mangroves and did not see V1 due to the mangroves. Once the captain of V2 seen V1 he maneuvered his vessel turning it to the right and striking V1 with his port bow of the vessel. The vessel sustained three scratches. The captain stated that a passenger on V2 suffered a "small cut" according to the captain of V2 and administered first aid to the injured party.
  While interviewing the captain of V2 I asked him did he take any pictures of the injury of his passenger and he sent me the photos after I had finished up interviewing him(see IR for photos of the injury).
  After receiving the photos it was deemed that the "small cut", sustained in the accident was a deep laceration that required 16 stitches. ; VICTIM received 16 stitches to the laceration received on his head.
