RedactedNarrative: The operator put Boat 1 into reverse to exit the boat slip, and once the boat was out of the slip the operator put it into forward. Boat 1 moved forward and hit the rear of Boat 2, and continued to move forward over the swim platform of Boat 2. 
  
  The operator then turned Boat 1 off and removed the key, causing the boat to stop its forward motion. After the collision, the operator was able to drive the boat to the dock and return it without further incident. Due to witness statements and the operator being able to return the boat, it was determined to be operator error and not a mechanical issue, and the operator was cited for Basic Rule (CO 6-2-104A).
