RedactedNarrative: Operator was operating his 19' Bayliner on Moses Lake at about 9pm with one passenger when he hit a concrete wall along the shoreline.  The vessel was traveling westbound on the lake and made a wide turn to the south.  Operator may have been attempting to turn around.  As the boat completed the turn, the boat came racing directly towards the concrete barrier.  Witness estimated the boat to be going at 30 mph at the time of impact. A witness who saw the same boat racing earlier in the day and saw the accident thought the boat was going between 50-60 mph.  The investigating officer estimated the boat to be going between 40 - 60 mph.  Damage to the underside of the starboard bow area was extensive with the fiberglass crushed in.  The lower unit was separated from the hull.  
  
  There were minor injuries to both of the passengers.  The operator was taken to the hospital immediately for his injuries.  occupant initially said she was ok, but later went to the emergency room and admitted herself.  She was diagonosed with a broken clavicle, ribs and spinal injuries.  
  
  There was evidence of alcohol use on the boat and a search warrant for Operator's blood was executed. Blood taken at the hospital showed a BAC of .23% and a later sample taken read .11% BAC, after the operator was air lifted to a Spokane hospital.  The vessel was a total loss but was recovered by the Sheriff's Office the next day.
