RedactedNarrative: The self-reported Owner of Vessel 1 contacted the Division of Watercraft to report damage to Vessel 1, which had been docked in an open slip on the night previous to the incident being reported.  On the night prior to the incident being reported, another party was also reported to have threatened to damage Vessel 1 and, after drinking heavily, had been reported in the  vicinity of Vessel 1 on the night before the incident was reported, apparently attempting to clear the dock and take Vessel 1 out onto Lake Erie.  Vessel 1 was found drifting in the slip with obvious damage to the port and starboard corners and along the port side.  The wooden/metal swim platform from Vessel 1 was also found floating in the water nearby.  Upon further investigation, the self-reported Owner was advised that his name was not the owner's name listed on the current registration.  The purported Owner insisted that he was the current Owner of Vessel 1, however, several days following the incident the purported Owner chose to not press charges on the suspected perpetrator of the damage to Vessel 1.
