RedactedNarrative: AFTER MY INVESTIGATION AND INTERVIEWING WITNESS, I CONCLUDED THE FOLLOWING OCCURED. THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL A WAS TRAVELING TOWARD HIS PARTY WHO WERE ON SHORE JUST TO THE RIGHT OF BURTON MILL BOAT RAMP. HE WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CHANNEL WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A SHARP STARBOARD TURN. HE WAS THROWN OFF THE PWC DURING THE TURN (THE PWC WAS DESIGNED WITH A LANYARD THAT WHEN PULLED AWAY FROM THE PWC, IT LOSES ENGINE POWER AND COMES TO A STOP). THE OPERATOR HAD THE LANYARD ATTACHED TO HIS PFD AND THE LANYARD WAS DISENGAGED FROM THE PWC WHEN THE OPERATOR FELL OFF. THE PWC HOWEVER DID NOT LOSE POWER AND ACCELERATED TOWARD A RESIDENTIAL DOCK THAT APPROXIMATELY 75 YARDS AWAY. THE PWC STRUCK THE DOCK BETWEEN THE TWO BOAT SLIPS. THE PWC SUSTAINED HULL DAMAGE ON THE PORT SIDE UNDER THE RUB RAIL. THE DOCK SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE FRAME OF THE DOCK AND TO DECK BOARDS.
