Operator2 and his wife were swimming near their drifting Yamaha boat when a Starcraft pontoon boat ran into the rear portion of their Yamaha boat. The Starcraft's port side pontoon ran over the swim deck of the Yamaha and became lodged in the transom portion of the boat. The occupants of the Starcraft vessel threw life jackets to operator2 and wife who were in the water and then pulled them aboard the pontoon boat. The occupants of the vessels attempted to dislodge the two boats from one another and were finally successful in doing so. The Yamaha was taking on water in the transom section and was towed to Cedar Point Marina. The Starcraft's port side pontoon was damaged and taking on water and was grounded near the East Juniper Point campground by Hwy. 377. Alcohol was on board the Starcraft boat however, all parties from both boats had left prior to my arrival and were not able to be contacted until the next day.
