RedactedNarrative: According to the operator of vessel 1 and the operator of vessel 2, the incident occurred around 2:00pm on july 21st.  The operator of vessel 1 was anchored to a dock behind the oasis condos in nags head.  He noticed a boat approaching the entrance to pond island where his boat was moored.  He also noticed that the vessel appeared to be traveling a little too fast.  The operator of vessel 1 shouted to the other vessel to slow down, but the vessel continued on at greater than no wake speed.  The wake from the boat got to vessel 1 and caused it to rock against the pilings it was tied to.  This caused the rub rail to be pulled away from the boat and also caused the screws holding it to damage the fiberglass by scratching up and down on the side of the vessel.  Operator 1 tried to get the operator of vessel 2 to come back, but he continued on to his dock.  
  
  On august 11th, i contacted the operator of vessel 2 and interviewed him about the incident.  He stated that he remembered the incident and that he did not feel as though he had done anything wrong.  The no wake signs were not present and he felt as though he had entered the creek a little faster than normal in order to clear a sandbar at the mouth of the pond island area.  He also stated that he thought the operator of vessel 1 had tied his vessel in a dangerous area and had not properly secured it to the pier.  After investigating the accident, i feel as though the absent "no wake" signs contributed to this incident and that the county of dare needs to replace them as a reminder to boaters to slow down in this area.  There were no charges against either boater.
