On 06/21/09 at approximately 1730 hours, while on boat patrol at deep creek Lake near Rt. 219 Bridge and Marsh Run Cove, I was contacted by the operator of V2. Vessel2 advised he was traveling south at approximately 15 mph slowing from 30 mph on Deep Creek Main Lake in the area of Bill's Marine Service when he was struck by a PWC/ V#1 traveling west. Vessel2 further advised the PWC was traveling approximately 20 to 30 mph jumped a wake and struck him in the left stern of the vessel. Both Vessels at that time were escorted to the Aquatic Center to obtain information. it should be noted that Ofc and I observed stress crack to the stern of the vessel and the rubber seal had been tore off. At that time I contacted the operator of the PWC/V#1 who advised he observed the boat and they were just drifting, he got to close and a large wake caused him to be thrown into the rear of the vessel causing the accident.
