RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1 was traveling upstream when vessel #2 passed on the port side.  The operator of vessel #1 attempted to steer through the wake of vessel #2.  Vessel #1 became tiller locked and was unable to steer out of the wake.  When vessel #1's prop was able to provide propulsion again, the vessel was perpendicular starboard to its original line of travel and was heading towards shore and a boat hoist.  Before the operator was able to bring vessel #1 under control the boat collided with the empty hoist and collapsed the structure on top of the vessel.  Vessel #2 left the scene of the incident and allegedly cruised by the location several minutes later.  Occupants of vessel #1 removed themselves from the damage vessel onto an adjoining dock. Ems and law enforcement was notified by bystanders.  All occupants of the vessel refused emergency medical treatment.  The operator of boat #1 was taken into custody by Delaware County Sheriff's Deputy for suspicion of operating a boat while intoxicated.
  
  No one on the scene was able to provide a description of vessel #2 even though witnesses have stated there was a second boat involved.  This investigation is still open and underway to determine who was the operator and occupants of vessel #2
