RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 was behind vessel 2 with both traveling on plane. In order to avoid a patch or pocket of water lillies (which were numerous in the area at the time of the incident), vessel 2 turned to the starboard and throttled down to a stop. Vessel 1 attempted to avoid collision by turning starboard, and struck vessel 2 on its starboard stern. The impact removed a cleat and did fiberglass damage to vessel 2. Vessel 1 sustained a 6 inch by 2 inch hole and scratches to the bottom of its port bow. PFD was worn and the kill switch was used by operator of vessel 2, but not by operator or passenger of vessel 1. There was no indication of alcohol or drug use by either operator. There were no injuries reported at the scene.
