RedactedNarrative: V1 was leaving the channel to Murray Marine when it struck V2 on its Starboard side while on a plane. V2 had no navigation lights
  
  On 5/17/13 at 9:10PM while on vehicle patrol on Key Haven boat ramp in Stock Island FL, Monroe County. I was flagged down by a white male who had his 40 foot Vessel (V1) docked inside the boat ramp. Subject advised me that he was just involved in a boat accident. I asked him what had happened. 
  
  Operator1 said that he was idling out of the channel heading towards Boca Chica Bridge. He then accelerated to were his (V1) got up on a plane so that his propellers wouldn't hit the shallow bottom. As soon as the bow came down, he struck an object that he later noticed was a small Rowboat (V2) with no lights on. Operator1 noticed a man standing in shallow water. 
  
  Operator2 was yelling at Operator1 saying that you didn't hit me, I jump out of V2 just in time. Operator2 was also saying not to call the cops cause it was his fault for not having a navigational light or life jacket on board. I then asked Operator2 what had happened. He said that he borrowed his friends V2 to make a beer run. On returning back from the store, he got back into V2 and started rowing back to the sailboat where his friend was. Operator2 stated that it was his fault for not having a navigational light or life jacket on board the V2.
  
  There was damaged to the bow and front Starboard side of V2 and no visible damage to Operator1 40 foot V1. Operator2 was transported to Lower Keys Medical Center where he was treated for a 3 inch laceration on his lower left heel and then released. He was citied for no navigational light and given a warning for no life jacket on V2.
  
  No further action was taken
