ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2011 AT APPROXIMATELY 6PM VESSEL #1 WAS HEADING TO CONCH HARBOR FUEL DOCK FROM FLEMING KEY.  UPON TURNING TO THE WEST HE STATED THAT HE SCANNED THE AREA AND WAS UNABLE TO SEE ANY VESSELS IN THE PATH.  HE LOOKED AT THE USCG CUTTER AND WHEN HE LOOKED BACK HE OBSERVED A SMALL VESSEL WITH TWO PERSONS IN HIS PATH, HE TURNED HARD TO PORT CAUSING THE VESSEL TO EITHER IMPACT THE SMALL VESSEL OR THE WAKE TO CAUSE THE VESSEL #2 TO SWAMP.  ONE PERSON JUMPED OR WAS KNOCKED INTO THE WATER AND THE OTHER WAS ABLE TO STAY WITHIN THE VESSEL.  THERE WAS NO APPARENT DAMAGE TO EITHER VESSEL AND NO DEFINEABLE IMPACT POINTS.  ONE PERSON WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL FOR POSSIBLE NECK INJURIES BUT WAS RELEASED THAT EVENING.
