Operator1 stated that he was attempting to dock at the Isle of Hope Marina behind Operator2's vessel.  As he made his approach, his engine failed and he lost headway quickly.  The current then pushed his port bow into the port quarter of Operator2s' vessel.  Operator1's vessel received 2 scrapes along the port bow flare.  Operator2s' vessel received damage to the corner of the rear railing and appeared to have flexed the transom causing the gelcoat to crack and chip.  There was no other visible damage.  Operator1 stated that he has already contacted his insurance company.
