On april 25, 2013, there was a boating accident in the cape fear river near bald head island.  Southport police department came into contact with operator at southport marina where he docked his mother's boat that was involved in the accident.  Operator had been drinking and blew a 0.19 on the ac.  On april 26, 2013, i spoke with operator about the accident.  He had drank so much the day of the accident that he could not remember where he had been or what he had hit with his mother's boat.  He said that he remembered leaving indigo marina but that was it.  Later that day, i spoke with the manager of bald head marina.  He advised me that some customers of the marina saw operator come into the marina at a high rate of speed and run into the fuel dock.  They advised he stumbled up to the dock office to see that it was closed.  Operator then got into his boat and tried to pull away several times at max throttle not realizing he was still tied to the dock.  They said after he left the marina, they heard a loud crash.  Subject advised that the right side exit marker of the marina was damaged.  Alcohol was a major factor in this accident!
