RedactedNarrative: On 11/6/12 myself and Officer were dispatched to the Fort Myers Yacht Basin, to investigate the report of a vessel accident; no injuries reported. When we arrived, we met with the operator of a 50 foot brand new Azimut. He reported that he just pulled into the basin to dock the vessel that was transported here for sale, at the Fort Myers Boat show.  As he was slowly spinning the boat around he had the throttles forward. When he pulled the throttles back into reverse the vessel continued forward subsequently colliding into two unoccupied docked vessels. There were two witnesses who gave similar accounts as to the operator's version as to what had occurred; supporting his story. Investigation at the scene revealed that the accident was caused by the throttles malfunctioning (mechanical failure). There was no evidence to prove otherwise. See detailed report for additional information. No citations were issued.
