One sailboat was at anchor.  The other was attempting to raft up.  A line was passed between vessels and a passenger on the anchored vessel held the line at the maneuvering vessel's stern cleat, but apparently with a finger between the line and cleat.   The maneuvering vessel moved forward to anchor, but beyond the scope of the line.  The tension in the line severed the small finger of the passenger and the finger was lost overboard.  The victim was taken to a local trauma center for treatment.
