Later on this evening, at approximately 10:30 PM I heard a vessel approaching at a high rate of speed.  The vessel was heading in an easterly direction, and up on full plane. I yelled at the operator to slow down.  The operator slowed to a halt, then came about.  The vessel approached my location and I discovered it was son again. The operator positioned his vessel facing toward the dock.  The operator punched the throttle, and the boat lounged towards the bulkhead. The vessel struck the bulkhead causing a loud bang.  The operator turned the vessel about and fled Eastward towards the bay.  
 
Investigation Revealed:  Operator #1 was operating vessel #1 within the Forked River when for unknown reasons, he struck the bulkhead.  Vessel #1 struck a piling with its port bow. Vessel #1 deflected to the right subsequently striking a second piling with it's bow o the center line. An inspection of the bow revealed extensive bow damage. The fiberglass had been crushed inward on the port bow and along the center line.  It was learned the operator hid the vessel near his residence.  It was recovered and dry docked in his fathers construction yard.
 
Operator # was issued summons for reckless operation,  for speed wash and wake and summons failure to produce Boating Safety Certificate.
