At approximately 6:30 pm, Vessel #2 (1 occupant) was heading South towards the damn on Gibbons Creek Reservoir. At the same time, Vessel #1 (6 occupants and 1 skiier) was heading west while pulling a skiier. The operator of Vessel #1 did not see Vessel #2 and, in turn, collided into Vessel #2. Vessel #1 slid on top of Vessel #2. The operator of Vessel #1 backed his vessel off Vessel #2. The operator of Vessel #2 suffered minor injuries (chipped tooth, scrapes and bruises, muscle aches). No injuries were observed or reported on the occupants of Vessel #2. Only the skiier on Vessel #1 was wearing a PFD. A passerby vessel towed Vessel #2 to the boat ramp and helped load it onto the trailer. Vessel #1 was capable of operation and was loaded onto its trailer. I arrived at the scene at approximately 8:00 pm and began my investigation. SFSTs were done on the driver of Vessel #1. No signs of intoxication were observed. Both operators were not under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Photographs were taken of each vessel and ownership information and pertinant information was recorded.
